Somehow i don't think the bitch will be a threat to lads who run in the Forley :laugh: ..she is bred to be a lamp dog..if she can "multi-task" as women seem to say they can :tongue2: ..well all the better :victory: ..maybe throw a handy pup come the day if she keeps on doing the business? ATB Andy. ;)

This was one of his first nights out. 25 rabbits albeit 3 dogs, which I dont normally do, but as the other lads had the permission, it was either 3 dogd or none. I remember the night, it was terribly warm and not a breath of wind

PP you obviously have a very good eye for a dog. Do you have any preference for dogs over bitches in running dogs or vice versa?

i think i could answer this question for him but he will still probably answer it for you...

 

he has owned some very good dogs for example BULPA, JACK, PATCH hopefully DON can get his name among them in the future... but some of the strongest lurchers he will have had in his kennels were bitches JESS, MEG, GINNY just to name a few... i am pretty sure them bitches would have ran toe to toe with any of the dogs.. so to answer ya question in simple terms i don't think it bothers him haha :laugh:
