Have you seen him, there's a pic of him in the training tips section, he reminds me of someone but just can't put my finger on it. Maybe worzel Gummidge. 1 Quote Link to post

Marvel 459 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Made the mistake of phoning him once, told me his lurchers were better than anybodys because his dogs had a leg on each corner Quote Link to post
Chid 6,377 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 anyone who puts husky into a lurcher line to improve it is a retard in my book and needs their head tested 2 Quote Link to post
bryanm45 787 Posted February 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 It's the first time I've noticed this advert, and yes some dogs do LOOK like the Smithfield pics I've seen but they cannot be from their bloodlines same for the Norfolk. Quote Link to post
bunnys 1,228 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 what i would say jb was not allways the eccentric he may have become , there be times yeasteryear he was held in high esteem ,and was allways out and about at the early venues . time is the university of life and hey . i can remember the times of the giberish remarks those desert dogs will be not one bit of use .and how wrong they have been weading the crap the crazy the undesireables out of any breed creature is usually best left to those who know best . its just a darn pity that some have not followed in our forefarthers aproacjh atb bunnys.

Bosun11 537 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Make no mistake, the only connection these lurchers have with the Smithfield is the coat and even that is suspect... Quote Link to post

Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 His reasoning... To The BLOODTHIRSTY. We apologise to the bloodthirsty "boy-lampers" and "boy-coursers" amongst you out there, but there are no pictures of dead "bambies" (or any other dead animals or birds for that matter) on our website. I prefer to see them alive and well, or be tasting them from my plate, thankyou. We acknowledge that the function of stealth poaching is essential to the development of these dogs' superior qualities such as: intelligence, trainability, physique, vigour and health. But, also believe that poaching is wisest veiled in the darkness of night and not boasted about the next day. I, myself, am a poacher retired. This usually invokes the query, "Do poachers actually retire?" which I chose to leave unanswered. I've no need to prove anything, because, I do not require your approval thankyou! These dogs survived when mere possession of one was a hanging offence for man and dog alike. Those "Dark-ages" may soon be about to descend upon us again. If so, it is important that this website is able to continue preserving these dogs with their hunting abilities, whatever the political climate. This, then, is the daytime showcase for dogs formed by feats performed in the darkness of the night. So, sorry to disappoint you "boy-hunters"(reared on a diet of "The Comic-book Writer's" phantasies), but if you want to see dead animals, you'll have to get out of the pub, and you just might gain some respect for the quarry by trying to catch your own! These dogs were functioning before you or I were born and it is our intention to see they survive, still capable of functioning after we're all gone. Quote Link to post

jamesmc 582 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Has anybody seen the advert in the back of countrymans weekly for "genuine old fashioned Norfolk,tumbler Smithfield bloodlines". Centuries of selective breeding for function (stealth poaching). Historically hidden inside the family dwelling ensures they make ideal family companions. (Trainable; when to or when not to chase). If you've seen it what do you think his website is www.lurchers.org.uk don't know why anybody buys that paper,its full a shite 1 Quote Link to post
boyo 1,398 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 he used to buy whole litters of a mate of mine. tbh think hes lost the plot a bit but back in the seventies and early eighties he did breed some nice stuff that could do the job . 1 Quote Link to post
weasle 1,119 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 The FAQ are great...A picture of 2 dogs from the same litter the small one is a "tumbler"The big one a" lurcher" 2 Quote Link to post
