fielder 18 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Does anyone remember an article in the Countrymans Weekly a while ago in which a bloke said he hoped to lamp his working Bouvier? It seemed unlikely, I just wonder if anyone heard any more? Quote Link to post
skycat 6,174 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Does anyone remember an article in the Countrymans Weekly a while ago in which a bloke said he hoped to lamp his working Bouvier? It seemed unlikely, I just wonder if anyone heard any more? Funnily enough I had met this guy at the Festival of Hunting at Peterborough 2 years ago: sound bloke. Then out of the blue he phoned me a couple of months ago and he has since got a male Bouvier as well. He was wanting to sound me out as to the potential for BouvierxGreyhound: did I think that anyone would be interested? I must admit I wasn't too full of hope for him and told him that there were that many lurchers being bred anyway he'd have to do some pretty good marketing and PR of the dog if there was going to be any interest. He did say that his bitch was a good deer tracking dog, following the blood trail as well as any dog could do. Anyway, I don't know if he ended up going to breed or not. That's all I know.
