Im sat in a pub, all tartan and tat with my Mrs and whippet. The bloke resembling Cat Weasel with the deerhound,  strikes up a conversation about sight hounds.

He asks if my whippet has much hunting instinct. I replied that it was strictly a pet . He told me his deerhound had a prey drive which was 'through the roof'. He went on to tell me his mutt had seized a wickerwork representation of a stag by the throat. Yeah, I thought yet another romancer. Sight hounds seem to be accompanied by fantasists who tell porkies. Highly unlikely. But heigh ho, it might be true.

He then launched into a lecture about the artist Landseer and the writer Walter Scott who loved his hounds. I pretended  this was all new to me and got the distinct feeling that I wasn't the first, by any stretch, to be broadcasted at on this theme, and that is was probably a daily occurrence.

In a spirit of comradeship which you would expect from me. And entirely in keeping with conversation, I showed him some photos of stags which had been legally stalked and shot.

Damn me the atmosphere changed and he and his very chubby mate waxed never ending about the possibility of creatures being wounded and dying  in agony.

'f**k you ya fat b*****d' I said to chubby what do you think happens in a slaughter house? These beasts die on the spot with no fear. Their guts are returned to the ecosystem and their meat isn't full of chemicals and antibiotics. Rifles and scopes are super accurate and efficient, as are the blokes with the rifles. 

I'll tell you what you pair of plastic jocks, let's go outside and sort it out like men! You're gonna need your f****n claymores and that wee penknife you carry in your skirt fatty.

Well the last two paragraphs aren't true,I just smiled wearily and sat down to slurp my soup and sandwich.  Mushroom and truffle soup by the way. Accompanied by a superb fish goujons sandwich.  Excellent!

When I had a deerhound x, I met an older lad walking 2 one day local’ish, I stopped an startwd taking to him, one his dogs looked a right nice sort, other was meh, anyways he starts going off on history of deerhounds an sight bound in general, I let him waffle on them asked if they grafted, he said they do, so I offered him a night out, I was itching to see his tan bitch run, the morning come an we went ferreting, lovely toe buck got up infront of is an I asked him to slip, he said no haha so I did, waked a bit further an dropped a few ferrets in a bury after a mark, rabbits started bolting quick cos we hadn’t set nets an ferrets knew there job, his dogs stood an watched, both of them, I was gutted haha both them off leads an none them even attempted to try, so I thinks it must be cos my dog here, be a gent an go out dog away in motor an see if other dogs try, nope dod they fcuk, so anyways I said to him let’s call it a day, you fancy a blast on lamp, not be a late one there’s a fair few rabbits within spitting distance of me house, so he agrees an assured me they have run the beam before, the wind an the dark comes an we set off out garden an up street to a few fields at end of road, I offer him first slip an he jumps at it, so we cross a cattle grid, an I scan field with lamp, fair few rabbits on the field but one is way way out, so I think that’s the fcuker, if his dogs are gonna catch owt it will be this one haha I tell him get ready, an tell him we walk through the other rabbits to get as close as possible so an other rabbit don’t jump up as dogs going down beam an make sure dog deffo see’s it, about 30 yds away the rabbit sits up, dog deffo saw it, an starts pulling, he lets go slip lead an this bitch Is motoring towards this rabbit, who really needs to pass us to get to safety  but instead it runs other way an dogs soon behind it, rabbit turned, not sharply, no where near a 45 degree turn haha dog just keeps running in same direction haha rabbit comes whizzing past us, I give me young dog a bit extra slip lead an he nails it as it passing us, whilst this is happening his bitch kept running sn running an running, don’t think it stopped for a few fields atleast haha haha we got it back 20 mins later haha so I ask if he wants try his dog which was sire to bitch, have a few runs myself then find another one  clamped way out, walk upto it, rabbit moves about 3 ft an stops, big dog stood on back legs an deffo saw it, guy slipped it an dog ran complete different direction haha 

 

safe to say he never took my offer to go out again, I gave him 6 of the bunnies my dog caught, few days later mate was telling me about a guy in pub showing off pics of his dogs with the catch from night before, he was amazed when I said they caught 6 didn’t they haha he couldn’t believe it, thought I’d saw pics haha told him don’t need see pics cos it was my dog caught them haha 

 

that sums up majority of deerhound an deerhound crops owners to me haha deffo still few decent owners an grafting dogs, but they just a talking point or show peice fir most haha

Because everything happens for a reason 😉👍
