Hello from Northumberland


Recommended Posts

New to this forum but I've been around long enough! ;)

 

I've not had long to mooch around on here so I'm not sure if I'll recognise many members by their user names, though I'm sure I'll recognise one or two people in time.

 

About me; I've been into dogs, ferrets and guns for near on 35 years since my Dad had me out shooting as a nipper and my uncle had me out with his ferrets and terriers. I'm mainly into rabbiting but I do a bit of pest control by shooting pigeons, crows etc with rifle or shotgun. I've been associated with a couple of local Lurcher/Longdog clubs and I've ran a few Obedience tests at various Country Shows as well as judged Lurchers in the NE/NW and Southern Scotland. The last of my ferrets pegged it a year or so ago and they've not been replaced as yet, as did my oldest Lurcher (a Dave Pike, line bred dog), I've still got a 12 year old 'pup' that is still keen on the lamp but at last has gained the sense that anything faster than a rabbit isn't worth the hassle. :D I've kept myself to myself the last 10 years or so and had little to do with the local scene preferring to get on and do my own thing with my sport.

 

I'll be straight and admit that part of the reason for registering rather than browsing every now and again, is that I'm likely to be after a Lurcher pup soon and though I can call on a few local lads to help me track down a decent enough animal, I'm 'probably' looking to track down an unusual Kelpie/Heeler/Cattle Dog x Greyhound. However more of that when I've had a bit of a Mooch.

 

Cheers.

 

Jack
