He bred some top class non/peds, including this one, I used to enjoy talking to him. Cheers. Quote Link to post

That greyhound pup I had for a bit could bend a hare in the middle of January at 6 months old, never had a coursing bred dog do that before, all I’m saying is a good greyhound is going to beat any other dog getting to hare on the run up off 100 yard slip, I’m not saying there better dogs far from it 4 Quote Link to post

A lad on here had two of Geoffs dogs that were amongst the first to break 8 seconds for 150 yards. Taysider had a dog bred by Beddy Dave sired by Geoffs dog, dam was beddy:whippet/greyhound that won the Scottish Lurcher Derby, Geoff could certainly breed a top class non-ped, I’ve seen quite a few.

I was there many times, were you ? Why do you contradict things that men have seen and done before you were born ? You come across like a spoilt child desperate to be right. Ive avoided getting involved in your nonsense for a while but sadly have been sucked in again .
