Doing just fine fezz, below in the snow last week. Hi Frank She looks great there, her brother is doing great although I was a bit pissed when I had a flat bed tipper truck with traverlers in pull up and offer me what he obviouisly thought was afair price for the Pup £30! Don't get me wrong I'd never sell the dog as he's retriving better than I ever hoped and I looking forward to running him but I do enjoy getting offers especially when they are quite flattering amounts (although I want to stress that I'd rather give a dog to a genuine home than except cash from anyone who I fe

the only thing I can think of that hasn't been guessed at is Whippet x grey but I'd have said Bull as a first guess

Great shot, Love the Whippit L***

It depends on the amount of light they experience during the day if they are kept outside in the england the late march thru till may but if you keep them inside as I did with two jills couple of years back (thievin b*****ds in my old neighbourhood broke in to my court) then they will come in with the artificial light which on in the evenings and early mornings. I think the technical term in photosensitive. Hope it helps L***

I got a pup brought over from your side of the water by a chap called Pat O'hare (PM me if you want his details), him and another few guys transport dogs for greyhound tracks; very good service as he had a big air conditioned box van and it only cost £75 to get the dog over. I don't quite see why you'd want a dog from over here as I thought that dogs were cheaper in Ireland? Good luck with it any how. L***

I know that most do not advocate feed in road kill but I once picked up a roe doe off the side of the road it must have been hit within the hour and it was a cold day gutted it and froze it lasted the ferrets for months (only had two gills back then), these days I'd have cooked it mostly my self as it was good meat. but I'd deffinatly advise people to look into Deer Road kill in the right cercumstanses.

Glad to hear it, I will have to stop procastinating and making exuses and just get on with it. Cheers

If you can get away with it then some city/town ponds are crawling with them as they have a great food source in the LOLITS (little old lady in tennis shoes) who come every day and feed half a dozen ducks a loaf of bread each every day (no joke I have seen this happen). Good luck L***

I will be getting the net out to have a look at it tonight, I've only some yellow spun nylon from KPS at the moment will this do???

Sounds like a good idea and they won't break as quick over here as we don't get that sun for 11 months of the year. Lud

Cheers Ian, I think I understand the gist of what you are saying but I don't think I'd carry it off well enough, I might chciken out of the repair and turn it into 2 nets as the hole is not far off the middle. Cheerrs L***

We're take the dogs to the west country for a week in a cottage (Luckily the neighbours kids love the Ferrets and the Chucks) and I'm being left at home too look after the dogs(had bad experience with Kennels before) by my wife and son while they bugger off to Florida (but the silver lining is its in November so I'll be ferreting while their gone )

I thought the rubber bands used by vets were meant to Biodegrade and this mean't they didn't last long?

Keeping my dogs inside makes me feel a bit safer in respect to this, I think it was ditchshitter who said that if someone enters your home then you can use reasonable force which can be easly justifyed to as lethal force (just don't shoot them in the back as they are running away). The other week I was walking my dogs and a traveller kid came up and started taking pictures of them I asked him what he thought he was doing and he said that he wanted to show the pics to his big brother; I nearly took the phone off him and threw it in a pond. I don't trust many in the hunting dog community st

I got a copy of the Welstead book in Ottackars (now waterstones two years agofor 9.99) and I think its a good read. The other good thing for getting info is to ask on here as some of the others on here have read all the books, others still have done everything and even better a few of them have written the books (rumour has it) .

Got one Polecat Jill, who has what I can only describe as catarax in one eye, she only got it about 3 months after I got her and I have no Idea of her age but her working ability has always been abit hit and miss and too be honest I never saw achange when it happened. I always thought ferrets hunted with eyes shut while under ground as if I pick up a albino after its been under and is covered in mud they always have a 1mm band around the eye which is clean. R***

Magnum Trap Co do IMHO the best possible pegs for a quick set the only critisism is the weight, but too be honest this doesn't bother me too much. I don't do nets off the poles (traditional Long net) but I have heard people use Hazel, Ash, and Privet. L**
