ASD where in Penrith is white gates? I went out with a Minshaw bred bitch ''Rosie''not sure of the lineage, a guy from Keswick i know brought her through she killed 39 out of not many more slip's, this was near the Gypsum site in 89/90, most lurcher's round and about keswick have a high percentage of Minshaw blood in them, not that there's many left in that area now.

Was the lad from Keswick called Sherman,he'd be the only lad i know who kept this type from there? The only other dog i knew of back then was called Rose and she was from Cockermouth and was owned by a lad called Wayne. White Gates as we call it is actually a village called Kings Meaburn mate,being near the Gypsum site your a handful of miles away.In reply to Jack Lee,there are plenty of folk "out there" working them mate.I'm away out with my young un tonight as i'm sure as are many others.Cheers Andy.

No,definately not ,my hunting partner has two which see more than plenty of graft,there are plenty around the area where i live in Cumbria,there are also numerous in NE England which get lots of work and i know of several lads in Lancashire and the Midlands too who work them hard.A dog i bred called Growler which belonged to Vic Minshaws son sired a litter and from the resulting mating two of those pups were actually sent to Canada,so i'd hazard a guess and say some Minshaw blood to this day may still be doing what they do best even on the otherside of the world? If you see the "old geezer" as you like to call him anytime soon tell him i was asking after him .Cheers Andy.

ASD it was Sherman mate, the bitch may well of been called ''Rose'', and still plenty of rabbit's round Kings Meaburn area, i don't live near Gypsum just used to go there, but lamped to death now Wish i was going out tonight but my dog is layed up with a strained foot, A couple of week's rest and a few stints in the mag-box and he'll be right as rain.
