  1. thats decent of ss hope you paid him lol He hasn't PM'd me to say he hasn't recieved the payment....... He may have to fight me for it !!!!! LOL !!!
  2. why the need for such big collars Let me tell you, mate; I was given a beautiful collar for one of my dogs for judging the Neilston Working Dog Show, but some scroat stole it off her ! My old bitch has run with balling twine and all sorts of gear round her neck, but I'm an old man now, and don't mind my dogs having the best.... they've earned it !! I'm a firm believer in "look after your dogs... and they'll look after you " !! Cheers.
  3. I PM'd SS yesterday, wanting two collars for my dogs; he PM'd back asking what I wanted, size, colour, fittings, etc. I PM'd him back with the details; he made the collars to my specifications and posted them on the same day..... This is BEFORE he recieved the payment !!! I recieved them today, less than 24 hrs since I PM'd him !! I have a very small circle of friends in the dog game, but this guy is one of the best !!!!! Cheers, mate !!!
  4. Kielder has been fishing very well for the last couple of weeks, both fly and bait. Ledgered worm with crushed dog biscuits in a swim feeder have been doing well. Cheers.
  5. Even on permission there are walls, fences, gates, etc, to get over; so if a dog doesn't jump, what do you do..... lift it over them ? Cheers.
  6. Heres a Deer/Grey pup at about the same age. No resemblance to your pup, but that means nothing. As I say, good luck with it ! Cheers.
  7. I'm most certainly NOT an expert on ANY cross of Lurcher, but just judging by the head shape, it looks to be more Beddy than Deerhound, but that is only my opinion. I've seen Beddy/Whippets and Beddy/Greyhounds with coats like that, but as people say, it seems a bit on the big side to be a Beddy cross! So my guess is that it's probably not a 1st cross, but a Lurcher x Lurcher breeding. Not much help, but hopefully it will turn out to be a good'un Cheers.
  8. Wern't Trailhouds origionaly Foxhounds with Greyhound blood added to give them more speed ? I've seen Trailhounds quite a few times and watching them run over the fell tops and then sprint in to their owners is a good day out ! Cheers.
  9. I presently have one of each; a Lurcher to Lurcher cross, and a 1st cross Longdog, so I don't really have a preference. One thing though, you normaly have more of an idea how big, how it will look, etc, with a 1st cross. But nothing wrong with Lurcher x Lurcher ! Cheers.
  10. I would say use a coursing Greyhound..... but the simple fact is there are 1000 racing Greyhounds to every one, (genuine), Coursing Greyhound. Best of luck. Cheers.
  11. So to comply with all these insane H & S rules would mean the end of the Club and Hunt shows ? I hope the change in government will repeal all these crazy P.C. rules and let us get back to enjoying ourselves !! Cheers.
  12. Just a comment on the brindle/judge subject; I've seen the lad judge a couple of times, and think he is an honest judge who genuinely works his own dogs, unlike a lot of judges. Yes there were a few brindle dogs winning, including two of mine, but looking around the show there seemed to be an awful lot of brindles around, more than usual, and some very nice examples. I can't see how the judge was baised when he gave a very nice light fawn dog the puppy championship, (deservedly), over my brindle bitch. No complaints about the judging or the show from me. Cheers.
  13. Bosun, I can see where your'e coming from; but in Oz they have a different outlook to pests from us. They built a fence thousands of miles long to keep Dingo's away from stock. They can't understand the oposition to killing feral cats that we have here; feral cats are, I think the number 2 pest down there. Foxes and magpies are very high on the list of pests aswell. I've taken feral dogs, with pure Saluki's, in the Middle East, but never went out especialy for them, and never deliberatly entered a dog to them, but sometimes it just happened, they were classed as pests, just a we class foxes, (
  14. A freind who I sometimes stay with when I'm in Australia, had a Dingo; I suppose you could have called it domesticated, and it was human freindly, but it was completely untrainable and unbiddable. It could only be let of the lead in an enclosed area. It lived with and was on good terms with a Westie. One problem with it was when walking it in public, people were VERY wary of it !! Cheers. P.S. When were you in Saudi ? I was there for 26 years, we may hay mutual aquaintances !
  15. They are Bullarab's mate. Well known hunting dogs in Australia. Cheers.
  16. This guy obviously thinks so !!! Cheers.
  17. A great show and a great day out, as usual ! I had Reserve Puppy Champion with my Deer/Grey pup Lima, and won the Rough Bitch class with my Lurcher Delta. Met up with lots of old pals, and put faces to names with some others ! One of the very best shows going ! Cheers.
  18. i didnt say 1ml for a lurcher,i said 1ml for every 25kg in weight so depending on the weight of your lurcher you dose it accordinly. for livestock the dose is given a week intervals for up to 6 weeks depending on what livestock your treating and how badly its affected. usually its given for 6 weeks with sheep. for a dog then 2 treatments is enough. the back of the bottle tells ya nothing about doeses for dogs by the way and it just comes with experience of using it on them and i find 2 treatments to be addaquite. iv never had a flea or tick on mine ever so the dosage i give mine seem to b

  21. Thanks for that; how is it applied..topically, orally or injection ? Cheers.
  22. it does mate very good stuff,kills everything You obviously have used it, is it available "over the counter", and how critical is the dosage ? I'm very interested in it; only heard of it, never used it. Cheers.
  23. Ivomectim is a steroid based treatment; so I'm not sure how it cures worm and flea infestation ? Cheers.
  24. As I've said time and time again; if you are worried about a dogs health or wellbeing...... GET IT TO A VET !!! They are the professionals; it's their job. Mange can run thru' a kennel like wildfire !! It can ruin your dogs; and ruin your reputation as a dog man ! Nothing wrong with asking advice on here, there's some top dog lads, but they are not vets. All the best with your dog. Cheers.
