I had a lovely walk up along the river bank this morning, around 6.30 am this morning,    and I was thinking about my first post I typed on Mother &son, I apologised, to the fellow who originally posted, for going off topic, it was my first post on here for at least two and half years, and there was a sarcastic remark made by a guy who goes by the name of BIG RON, I would bet he is a member who has a couple of subscriptions, and I have my suspicions who it came from,        One bitch dog came to mind, Her name was Tinker a red fawn only 23" this was back in the day late 60s early 70s  greyhound x collie whippet, I bought her of an old travelling man she was about 18 month old some thing around there yes she could do her job all daytime  and a great watch dog as well,  Another dog 3/4 grey 1/4 Scottish deerhound, he had pace to burn, lift his quarry without breaking his stride, Rabbit and Hare, this is when it was all legal about the same time as Tinker,   I won the Christmas, stakes with him lads from Carlisle and a couple of travelling lads,  we ran on the Scottish coursing grounds the man who I was in the final with is still around Carlisle his name is Tony H--------, he was a fighting man as well, so if there is lads from Carlisle they will know of him,  the  3rd dog well he  was  Turbo Sam, 26" Black dog, do the full card the only dog I saw and witnessed, he took 7 out on that famous ground, were the Scottish national was held all legal  around, 1975 and those three dogs should never have left my home, proper dogs,   today I have a young dog he will be 3 in September,he is Salukiwhippet xgreyhound, I bred him from my bitch Saluki whippet greyhound, Pepsi is his grandsire, and the greyhound in his dams side was Westmeadehawk Irish Derby winner, those three previous dogs were never at the Vets or bone man   

the Saluki, x has been to the bone setter out in West Cumbria, a Knowledgeable man , now  I do not have the energy for the game, I can walk a couple o fields and that is were I am  I had a bad do of Cancer from 2009 started from my left Kidney they removed that one then I went 5years then Lung and lymph gland, and to this day I am on top of that,   I walked with my dogs and I stopped ridding horses, but the dogs kept me going, but my belief, in the good Lord  he helped me through, I refused chemo, about 4years back and I have aqua puncture  a proper Chinese, lady for the past 5 years,    (((( please I am not looking for sympathy or sorrow)))   you play the hand you are dealt with, and it never gets me down, I have and still am enjoying life,             Life is what you make it,  enjoy it and smile and thank the Lord you are able to do it,                   Thank you all    

Glad you're still in the game, I missed last season as I had the the old bitch, Delta, put down at 15, and my other bitch, Lima, has put in some great shifts, but at 12 is enjoying a well deserved retirement.

I thought long and hard about getting another dog at 69, but decided if I didn't do it now, I'd probably end up regretting it, so brought in another pup !

They keep us young, if sometimes tired ! ! But, like you, I wouldn't be without a dog around, to have a walk out with and a bit of sport !

Cheers.
