baldockbanks courser 598 Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 .im not trying to preach to any f****r....im just saying that theres alot of dogs passed around, one of the boys that i mentioned, took 8 month pup out on lamp, slipped it, and it turned round and jumped at his hand. he got rid? cos it wasnt keen ? its a joke. then you got two men on here that have supposedly had dogs most their ife, telling me im in the wrong, yet you openly admit on the other forum that youve had loads of failed dogs? yet this is my first and shes doing ok...? lol just because its my first dog your making out it should instantly fail , or i have low standards?

BORDERSCOT 3,816 Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 I've had 11 running dogs in the past 35 years and more often than not have had two at a time at varying ages...once they are here, (barring fatalities which I have had) they are here for good - never had something I couldn't work with...some were f*****g fantastic dogs, some were good honest curs and one or two made serviceable lurchers - all have put food on the table and all have provided me with hours of dodgy and honest adventure, mischief, fun, highs and lows, heartache and lifelong memories... And apart from a wee yapping beddy x whipp x collie x grey bitch I had when I was young I have never had to rehome anything - ever... I've learned to live with their faults and foibles and have embraced their strengths and weaknesses as they have with me...I've tried to instill the same ethos into my lad...hopefully he'll make a serviceable dogman one day... Too easy an option to 'get shot' at the first hurdle...get another, then another...and so on...I know some who'll go through 3-4 in a season declaring that they are all shit - personally, I'm not buying that...not saying there are no useless/shit dogs out there but if you consistently have shit dogs in your yard and go through 4,5,6,7,8 every season...the fault is clearly with the human... Just my opinion as I see it... Up to now it's been fun...long may it all continue... atb Colin. good post,but the last line sticks out to me as that is why i do it for fun i enjoy it. it ain't a contest i may or may not have good dogs but if i'm out enjoyin myself it's all good & while like anyone else i like to get a few it ain't a necessity & it's a good job round here lol but that don't make the dogs any better or worse than anyone else's & as you say long may it continue I'm 48 in July Pritch and if the next 20 years goes past as quick as the last 20 I'll be knocking 70 before I know it...scary thought...so I'm just going to enjoy it all for what it is and my dogs for what they are...anything else is a bonus - I get huge amounts of pleasure from watching my lad - he's 15 - with the dogs and to be honest I can get emotional at times when I see him setting off with the dogs, ferreting, snaring, making nets, mooching about...I watched him walking up the road towards the house one day a wee while back just at the darkening with three rabbits and the collie x and it was like watching myself half a lifetime ago - lump in the throat stuff - so ahm just gonna enjoy it all when I still can...and hope he can enjoy it for a lot longer when I'm gone... 8 Quote Link to post
