SHanded. . 110 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 I see a couple lads are saying the Tumbler line is just a load of rubbish an that the breed is dead. I would like to ask you lads whats your opinions on the minshaw strain... Because in my eyes it seems like very similar circumstances... Cheers.. you wanting a reaction shanded lol No. me? Never!!!.. When I read birds reply it was interesting an made alot of sense he basically says when your keepin a line you after inject some new blood from time to time which basically thins out the original blood in the dogs. Now a Norfolk tumbler was or still is a strain of lurcher, an I bet the dogs that are apart of the strain all look an have similarities. Yet people on this thread have come out an had there opinions on a Norfolk tumbler, I would just like some opinions on the 21st century minshaw... Me personally just think that alot of people on this forum actually know what am gettin at but just don't get involved Incase they get the minshaw brigade on there backs.. Lol Cheers..

Bosun11 537 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Seen a couple of dogs off Mick Douglas back in the day, they were what I knew as Norfolk Lurchers, they could kill hares but the onslaught of the Saluki lurcher made 'em almost thing of the past. Think Stabba's hit the nail on the head with the type too. I'm sure there were strains of big rough coated dogs out of that area that lent themselves to the name but those lines are long diluted i'd bet and really, if they were that good they wouldn't have got knocked off their perch by the dogs from the East But for those that want to dream, they are out there somwhere... Awaiting a major comback, but this time its only for the money...! As for Norfolk Tumblers, well to me they are a recent invention, never heard of 'em 25+ years ago and the above still applies. As for todays Minshaws... Well I can totaly see where your coming from SH and your probably right but it's sommat I ain't gonna loose any sleep over. 1 Quote Link to post

Was it you that spoke to him DMagic? If it was how long where you on the phone for? I have been unfortunate enough to of endured a phone conversation with mr burrell after he put an ad in the cuntrymans weekly and i dont know how long i was on the phone to him for but it was a long time and everytime i tried to make my excuses and hang up he would go off on another tangent and blab for ages more! Lol! I dont remember much of the conversation but he did say something about "a leg on each corner", huskys not being obedient but his one was, he has bred 2 types a big one and a small one, he knows of a litter, the waiting list is full at the moment (to which i replied "why did you put an ad in the paper then" and he managed to change the subject again! Lol! It just went on and on and on and on............................... Quote Link to post
