Just Sharing A Little Something

[Haiddheliwr 1,911]

That is classic FD! My missus comes out occassionaly and carries tools, holds terriers but wears so much clothes she would have hell of a job getting down to her bare a**e! She followed many hunts in the past so I am probably lucky we share the same interest! If she ever gets her bush out behind a bush I will let you know, the boys I dig with are randy sods so the least I could do is have it neatly trimmed in case lol

Used to dig every Sunday with a lad who lived only 20 minutes from me.

We'd only be in the field when his wife would be ringing him just to say hello.

In a mornings hunting she'd ring him 2 or 3 times and it was always luvvy duvvy shite.

I lost the head with him one day when he was crowning through to a terrier and stopped to answer the phone to his wife (to tell her he loved her like he had an hour previously) and I grabbed him by the coat and pulled him out of the hole.

If the quarry had got by the terrier he'd have been the first to call the terrier a wanker.

 

But we were digging one day and he was in the hole around 3 foot down and took his phone out of his pocket to answer it.

It was his wife (again) and he'd seen her an hour ago.

"Hi, how are you." he says all luvvy duvvy.

At this stage one of the lads puts his face near the phone and in a big deep voice says "COME BACK TO BED DAVE, IT'S GETTING COLD !".

All we could hear then was her shouting down the phone at him "WHO'S THAT DAVE, WHERE ARE YOU ? I THOUGHT YOU WERE HUNTING."

 

Poor terrier underground we couldn't dig for 10 minutes pissing ourselves laughing while Dave walked around the field explaining to the wife that he really was hunting and not in bed with some big black guy.

I might have met this Dave ?

When I think of poison. I usually conjure up thoughts of a creature, be it man or

animal. In the throes of agony dying of a toxic substance that they have ingested

either accidentally or on purpose. The scenario I ask you to consider at this time,

are the effects of people on one another, the dogs, or some other environmental

stimulus on the individual. I have known people over the years who were really sound

and came from good backgrounds, but fell in with the wrong crowd and ended in locked

up. Some, like the periodical son, came to them-selves while otherswere destined

to a life of trouble. That is why I often tell folks who ask me, that besides a

foundation for your kids, one of the most important things you can do is to know

who they are hanging with.

I have noticed situations where two people hooked up and the blend made for

pure de poison. Sometimes this is two friends and other times it is a marital

relationship. I have known more than a few couples that were good as gold

to themselves, but put them together and toxic is a understatement. I am not just

talking about a troubled relationship, but people going at it like Bonnie and Clyde.

I have said all this to set the stage for the dogs that is often to seem to be the

catalyst for a situation that is bound to go bad. It is not just the APBT. There

have been coon hound guys who were so obsessed that their dog addiction poisoned

all their relationships.

The APBT seems to have this affect on many segments of

our fraternity. I have seen marriages go down the tubes because of the dogs and

the dogs themselves are not the problem, but the folks who became obsessed seem

to often to lose there grip on reality and forget the things that are important.

that isnt to say that dogs are unimportant, but theyshould fall somewhere down

the list behind family, job, and the other obligations that you have made.

To me, the important thing is to keep the dogs in perspective. I was one of those

folks in the early years, to almost lose it because of my fascination with the dogs.

Had i not been so busy in life. And the dogs just a part of a very full plate. I

am certain that some of my family would have had me committed. Not only are there

relationships often poison to the people and those they come in contact with. but

to the dogs themselves. I have seen dogs used, abused, and neglected for any number

of reasons, all of which have no validity as far as I am concerned. Frank Fritzwaters

wife once confided in the Little Plumber. that these dogs will

make you crazy. and her husband and some of his cronies were proof. Dave

shared this with several of us one day and we were pretty much in agreement that

some of those old guys that ran with Frank were pretty much looney tunes, but for

Frank it was probably more the rot gut than the dogs. Either way we realized that

there was some truth to what she had said.

The final poison I keep hearing about, takes place in the chat rooms. The internet

Gladiators slay me. They call other peoples dogs curs , have cuss fights,

stoop to slander, and of coarse, make terroristic threats. You can bet there are

people doing jail time for some of the things they say they will do. before its

all said and done. It would seem that the bulldogs and chat mix about as well as

bulldogs and alcohol. I hope this strikes a cord with some. and they re-asses their

situations.

If I were to advise everyone who owns these dogs, take inventory, then do an evaluation,

make every effort to enjoy the dogs, be happy, and do not let the situation control

you or your life. Above all, do not let the dogs become poison to you or your life.

Above all do not let the dogs become a poison to you or your relationships, and

for sure please do not let your actions become poison to the dogs
