Remember the old saying ; “ don’t believe anything you hear, and only half of what you see” ! Cheers.

I googled “Sandman Saluki” and the first image that came up was one of my old saluki ! No relation , obviously ! LOL ! Cheers.
-
Daywalkers, mate, it’s in their DNA ! LOL ! Cheers.
-
A saluki from about 45 years ago; OOPS, sorry, I read the thread title and presumed it was about salukis ! LOL ! Cheers.
-
You’ve just about quoted Saudi law verbatim ! LOL ! Most of which I agree with, by the way ! Cheers.

Asian Labour Councillor. He said; “cut the throats of Tory’s and the far right” Not guilty. White wife of a Tory Councillor. She said; “ burn the mosques for all I care” Guilty and jailed for 32 months. Fair ? Not in my world…… Cheers.

Yes, but I don’t know if it took. Cheers.
-
Can’t see it registered under that name with the BWRA. Cheers.

Looks like Trevlins Diamond, right age. I could be wrong but if it is it’s a top class dog, winning a lot this year. Cheers.

Be careful about planting seeds to early! It took me three goes to get my green beans to germinate this year. Ive just planted my winter crops a few days ago, parsnips, turnips, chard and sprouts, they have all germinated with this heatwave and plenty water . Cheers. -
The fawn one. I know the lad who owns both and he said I could use either one. The black dog is tremendously fast but the fawn one is the winner over a longer distance and looks a stronger type to use over my type of bitch. I haven’t decided to do a mating yet , I’ll wait and see. I’ll be looking at a lot of dogs over in Ireland in December, might be easier at my age to bring one in rather than breed a litter. Cheers.

Yes mate, they are, or were, they are around 7 now. The black one won the veteran scratch race at the Scottish Derby a couple of weeks ago in a faster time than the normal scratch races, and had been the fastest scratch dog for years, regularly breaking 8 seconds for 150 yards.The fawn one is faster than the black one when run over 270 out of greyhound traps. Maxs bitch bred from a non-ped champion and a lurcher is in pup to the black one, I don’t know of any dogs out of the fawn one. Cheers.
-
It doesn’t mate. It went to big. The limit for scratch racing is 55lb. Cheers.

Never heard him mention Salukis when I’ve spoken to him . He had the prefix Doxhope Deerhounds. He may have had the odd saluki but never seen him with one but pure deerhounds and deerhound lurchers are what he’s known for. Are you thinking of Rupert Slack ? He had deerhound crosses for years but I think he had coursing bred saluki types later Cheers.

Karen from Ruweis Salukis used to run in those comps; Cheers.

Lifting with hare and roe. Cheers.

Ashington or Bedlington, I get mixed up between him and Alan who lives where, but near enough no difference, I lived in a little pit village, East Cramlington in the same area, back in the early 70’s, a great area for lurchers and whippets . The Charltons brother, Sankeys dad and Doherty’s dad all had whippets, as did I. Cheers.
-
He asked me if he could use pics of my dogs in the second edition of his book and I sent him a cd of pics but the publisher said the pics had been compressed and they couldn’t use them. I used to run whippets on the same tracks as his dad many years ago. Cheers.

Strong Stuff; I was once selling collars , leads , couplings from a stall at the EDRD show, and Aaron was on the next table selling his stuff and I had two dogs lying in front of my table with his collars on ! LOL ! Cheers.
-
Yes. From a Billy Doherty in Northumberland . The sire to the one in the snow was Doxhope Knights Errant and he told me the two on the cover of his book “Deerhounds and Deerhound Lurchers “, these two; were her grandparents and the bitch , Doxhope Ambecky, which is pictured in the book jumping a gate, was the best working pure he had. Doxhope Knights Errant is the grand sire to the bitch I have now. Cheers.
-
I traced this half crosses ancestry on the deerhound side to when Miss Noble was allowed by the KC to add greyhound to her line , Cheers.
-
The old girl herself ; Cheers.
-
No, they were my pals. Cheers.
-
Me with a few deerhounds at Wolsingham a few years ago; Cheers.
-
It’s gone a bit quiet, so here’s a pic of a working deerhound my pal sent up to Scotland to work with a golden eagle; Cheers.
