most of them ones round slemish deffo inbred .seen 1 the other day hammering n blattering treble strands of wire on top of sheepwire lol hed of been better of going to the barbers to get the tuffts of hair clipped out of his ears youd think it was turf lol

but then your just letting them know youve been there and surely if there out to hurt your runner then they will find another even more discreet way

 

i was( wrong) then just read the other threads, didnt know it was for that ,but suppose 6in off the floor could stop cattle head. Yeh right dont let'em know you been on the ground, thats the way, and if you got a full on type lurcher that gives 100% with each run, they will cop it from time to time, my pup bit mad headed hope i can get away with not tangle with the feckin stuff.?

Here's one of mine, a few days post op after her knob jockey vet decided that he should put tension sutures in and try to close a heavily bruised and badly torn chest. It should've been treated as an open wound but he played guinea pig with her to 'see if this would work'. He's lucky he still has all his teeth.

 

Took her six full months to heal.

 

 

Both mine snagged on barb that was left lying in the grass up on the moors yesterday. The whippet is fine but the lurcher has a lovely tear on her hock.

 

It should be banned.

glad your dogs alright mate it could of been worse

all these replies of going back and cutting the fences down its no wonder farmers are warey of letting lurcher lads on there land grow the f**k up its the risk we take no one wants there dogs cut up but you cant go round cutting fences thats someones livelyhood i hate the barbed shit my dogs had a good few skin tears off the shit but im not about to loose this permission that took me 3 year to get over a stupid 2 mins cutting the blokes fence

 

yeh but when put a strand only 6in off the floor, thats a c**t trick.Its not stopping cattle or sheep from doing anything at that height . fact .Iam not say cut his fence +wire down when its put at (normal) height, if your dog gets a wack its just 1 of them things, but 6in off the floor i would cut the feckin thing deff .

It's to stop cattle putting there heads under the fence to eat the other side, some might even crawl under.

At the end of day barb wire is just part of the country side,if you don't like it don't go.

 

cattle are very determined (well the words thick) but half a ton can exert a lot of pressure on a fence, a herd of cattle on a main road or on a blind corner does not bear thinking about. barbed wire is relatively cheap, quick and easy to install and maintain and very,very effective,

 

Bryson, Weasle and Paulus are spot on.

 

I have had plenty vet bills due to barbed wire, shit happens. The worst was my best lab bitch, returning with a pheasant I noticed a huge flap on her undercarriage. She lost the use of 5 nipples that day and I had bred her 2 weeks before this, took it on the chin, there are people out there with more to worry about than me.

The estate I'm on when the new owner bought it it had cattle and sheep. Now there are no cattle and no barb or electric as he shoots and loves working dogs ( of any kind ). Top man.

They tie them to stop the stock opening the gates , horses and cattle can be a b*****d for it .
