Fellah, I think you are on the wind-up,...nobody is as fecking foolish as you portray yourself...? You want a dog for an eight-year-old, for Christmas...but, you want it 'cheap as chips'...coz yo

£ 200 - 300 isn't that much for a dog that's going to give you at least 5 years of sport and probably 15 years of companionship. If you are too tight to part with the money get him a gerbil you tight

Your sons too young to own a working dog,most kids wont look after a goldfish at that age.I'd wait till he's a bit older and make him save up for one doing chores etc,he will value it more.Make him do

Only live once getting the lad a dog is a good idea. Like he says he will own the dog anyway. It will give the lad some responsibility and the lad a job to do and nowt better than having your own dog to work with whilst out with your old man. Feel like a joint enterprise then rather than just tagging along with your old man. Will give him a lot more enthusiasm. Go for it mate. Get him a Beddy whippet. Smart first dog for the lad.

Get him the dog.get him started.my younglads 12 and has his own lurcher for foxes.been looking after my hounds with me since God only knows what age.a young lad with a little bit of responsibility is no harm.like ya said you'll take on the dog if the younglad looses interest.so it's a no brainer

      **sorry for the double post**
      I know I'm probably going to get the piss severely ripped out of me for asking this, but
      Has anyone ever successfully trained a deaf lurcher (from two working parents and I own her 4 year old sister who is an awesome little bunny basher.) 
      Genetically she has potential, but...what do you experts think? 
      She's not a Double merle by the way, it's extreme piebald/white head. Her vision is perfect

      Hi to all, so I've never owned a whippet before and have encountered an irritating habit that got worse in the last month of ferreting and was wondering if anyone out there has had success minimising noise during ferreting?
      So he runs prey silently, almost never barks at home so I was very happy going into his first winter, but.... when the ferret slot machine is not paying out fast enough for his liking he yips at the holes he senses are near the underground action. On top of that, if he runs a bolted rabbit to ground again he persistently barks at the hole while constantly looking at me as if to say "get them ferrets over here mate, I've got one for you"
      I've a very experienced collie lurcher who is a dream to ferret with but the whippet seems to make no reference to the good stuff he does. Any ideas on managing this?

      Just got this stunning little bitch, nearly 12 months old, Deerhound x Bedie grey.
      I used to go out with my dad's Lurchers when I was a kid but I'm a female in my 30's now and struggling to get back into the swing of things.
      I'd love to have this girl knocking down bunnies but I just don't know where to start, I've barely seen a rabbit or and other quarry since I moved here.
      Any of you experts in my area fancy giving me some advice/practical experience (hunting related only)
