I've been to NZ and had a go at pig hunting and deer stalking there. Both were great and I intend to go back. Been to s pain briefly too and failed to catch a boar. I reckon it'd be good to try again. I'd also like to try the states. Swamp hunting in the deep south and running dogs on the plains. One place I'd like to try also is Argentina, running hares and their big birds with lurchers looks good. Also the fishing in the pantanole swamps.

Sounds like maybe a twisted back? Metacam and a boneman would be my course of action. And a heat lamp if you have one

I would have lost at least one dog permanently with out collars. He fell into an underground water tank a long way from where I was. No way in the world I would have found him without the tracking collars. When I went in to get him there was a full deer skeleton and lots if other bones down there. It would've been a shit way to go

How do either of you know how or what is needed in a dog to work on another continent??? And why do you care? Theres far to much testosterone floating about. Everyone just chill. -

Don't you lot ever get bored??? You've been rattling on about the same boring crap for weeks. It was vaguely interesting for a bit when there were some pictures but you've gone back to rambling on again. It's like a car crash movie, I know it's awful but i cant stop looking at the thread ??? -

Depends what your sport is I guess. I'm no terrierman and wouldn't want to be but a terrier that would enter, try for a bolt but be called out if necessary would tick a lot of boxes for me. Different strokes for different folks -

Don't do that. Dog like that would be handy to plenty of people, me for one. One man's trash another man's treasure -

That's almost word for word what I was about to type ? Shame really, an actual usa hunting thread would be good but it's just impossible to get past the drama -
Skate is good eating. It's actually why I was asking about the stingrays, wondered if they'd be the same

Do you eat the stingrays?

These old photo threads are some of the best on here.

I bought a bottle with the help of jigsaw while I was over there. I gave it to my mate I work with as he likes a drink. It was a mistake! He got stuck into it and ended up having 3 days off work. I quite enjoyed it as a honey punch like jetro said, it was handed out at hunt meets I went to. I think my mate was knocking it back neat as shots - rather him than me!

That's the easy bit lol. The hard bit is teaching the handlers!

Let me know if you want any tips, I'm no expert but she is very handy to have about. If you are planning on starting a pup off I'd have a look at the Deer Dog Blueprint. It's a training system designed by an Aussie and his YouTube videos are impressive. I plan on using it with my next pup

Cheers BH. I'd missed this. I'm a ukdtr member and track using my lurcher. She / we were trained by them. She still does all the other jobs a lurcher should do. I also use her as an indicator dog while stalking. I don't do enough tracking to justify a single purpose dog for it. If i put the tracking harness on her then she knows it's tracking time so ignores other stuff. She also knows the difference between a shot gun and a rifle and acts accordingly. Dogs are cleverer than we give them credit for.

You've got that a mile out mate. English was spoken by the Angles, a Saxon tribe, hence the name. I believe they originally settled in eat anglia from the Germanic area. They were here before the Danish whose language has had such an influence on place names etc in the North. The Britain's were here before the Angles and Saxons and were pretty much the original inhabitants, as far as recorded history goes anyway, and they have more in common with the Welsh and cornish. Not particularly relevant to the original post really but if the rest of your facts are that far out .....

Personally I want everything stock broken. I go on invites in different parts of the country and don't want to let myself or my host down. Same as i want dogs to be comfortable staying in a strange house or kennel happily or even the motor overnight. I guess different things are important to different people depending on what you expect to do with your dogs.

Lurcher bitch with run at night but not in the day?
Tyla replied to Adamposh's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
Take her for what she is. Lamp her and if you want to get her bushing maybe just take her on her own or with an elderly busher who wont bother chasing in the open. I took mine up the dales on an invite and there were a few dogs. She didn't want to do much with the competition but once she worked out she could hunt them up out of the reeds on her own she started jumping a wall into a different field, hunting up and flushing her own rabbits. She'd retrieve them back to me once she caught one then go off on her own again. Just wouldn't work with a pack she didn't know. Funny things dog -
Lurcher bitch with run at night but not in the day?
Tyla replied to Adamposh's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
I've a bitch here that won't hardly chase if another dog is present and yet gives it her best if on her own. She's just a really subservient bitch so pulls up to let the other dog run even if it the busher. It's frustrating but she has other talents so I'm not bothered. They are all different, I try and work with their strengths rather than focusing on their weak points. How long you had her? -
He's done that before, see how he held his legs out the way as he killed it
