reminds me of my old fella i hounded him for a racing pigeon loft he ended up building a 16 x 12 .. soon filled it and started racing when i was 12 -- 2 russell pups soon followed

-- he was never into it himself but loved to knock stuff up .. he helped me do my current kennels aged 73 and with a heart condition could`nt keep him away .. when i moved house after getting married he took my old loft down moved it on a truck rebuilt it in a day on his own i came home from work birds were in and fed for the night ... next day he`d got beans in where the loft had been .. :blink:

unlike your da stig,my oul fella was a fairly poor D I Y enthusiast,in fact he wasnt at all enthusiastic about doing stuff :laugh: and when he'd finish something for me he'd warn me not to ask for anything to be made again,lol.never took much notice of him though :laugh:

My first ever kennell.I was 14 years old and had to beg my father to allow me have one.I had a white russell and a whippett in it.The pic was taken during the snow (obviously,says you :icon_redface: )

The start of an ongoing love affair for m with the solation of the woods and fields and glens.

WHERES THE TISSUES :laugh:

Cracking picture that :thumbs: ...what id have done for such a marvelous set up at that age :D ...i had to make do with half ( yes half ) of a 9th floor balcony of my ol nans tower block flat....she used to keep quiet while i skipped school to go round and exercise it etc....was still the fittest little terrier in Canning Town :D .....funny how your hunger and desire for dogs drives you with absolutely no knowledge as a kid !

Its true gnasher,I hadnt a clue at the start but I just had to follow through and I learnt fast.I used to go out with the big lads and watch what they did and decide for myself which bit was right and which wasnt.I lived and dreamed dogs back then.If I did something well back then,I tried the next time to do it even better,lol.Couldnt be arsed now,just enjoy what i do and get out whenever I can.
