Fit vs unfit

Back in his day he was out 4 to 5 times a week all season, season after season he was the fittest dog that I will ever own as I simply don't have the time to be out that much no more. He didn't look muscled up like some do but he could run forever slip after slip first pic was last year 2nd about 8 year ago

Thank you, he was a nice animal, not the best but I enjoyed owning him and we got on.
£40 token payment towards rearing the pups is what he cost me and that was only because I insisted ! Lol 

The lads that bred the litter went off to Africa gold mining and phoned me up for a lining, I didn’t think he had done enough of was good enough for it so I declined.

They wanted to take the pups out there to run Dik Dik and stuff like that.

I think I know that crazy young guy...mad for it 

Very nice lad mate, friend of a friend type thing.

I picked him up in Hampshire from a girl that bred or trained polo ponies.....you may know who that is but I’m buggered if I can remember all their names, which tends to be the case with nice people.

I know mate bull blooded are one that always looks fit when there not but it’d be nice to see some running fit dog pics all the same fella especially from people on here that give it the big un all the time that peoples dogs ain’t worked enough surly they can set the standard of what a fit dog should look like 

This wee Brindle Merle bitch certainly looked the part and she was always a trier,..sadly she never made the cut ...

I've owned several lurchers that had 'Hard Blood Whippet /Grey  genes and they invariably sported a six pack kinda physique. 

Fabulous to look at, and relatively easy to keep conditioned and looking like Page Three stunners....

However, it is far harder trying to get the various Herding composites to look the part...more so if they are F.1 Hybrids..

Yes, you are right Wilf...

Smashing, crazy young guy, we had some good hunts on the deer together, but he was just too young and too keen,.. for me...

That ship sailed a long time ago,...nowadays, I am just an old Moucher,...I'll leave the mad-cap antics and killing sessions, to the young bucks..

Was that youn xxxx Phil ?

Cheers.
