I can remember paying 600 for my first ever bar of puff back in the early 90s.Was paying 400/450 a key just before it all dried up around 2007ish

4 or 5 different nice bits round here atm ranging from a nice blonde through to a very heavy black that comes in 200g balls.Been told theres as much as I want with as much time as Id need.My pal whos a right has conaseure reckons its all as good as anything hes smoked in Dam.Hash is making 34s to 36s on single atm whereas your hard pushed to get 34s for top green atm

Dont even have to wait for the green to dry up round here.Few different types of quality hash down this way atm and all of the older heads have given up with the nutty weed and left it to the youngsters to mangle their brains

I wouldnt put up with any dog acting around me mate.Dont matter how good they are at their job the have to fit in with me,my family and other dogs

Ive personally seen and been told of ch bulldogs that were safe around other dogs and pups unless it was time to go to work.A pal had a little very well known bitch that could be loose with and walked out with other dogs as long as they behaved but hold her between your legs and she'd go into anything.Another good friend who I met when I was a kid in the 80s had a ch dog that he could put in the back of his car with his 3 british bulldogs and take him down the park and he wouldnt look at another dog unless he spotted his own kind

But who was line breeding them 20 years before the likes of CN?There may have been lads producing the odd dog but was there anyone breeding with as much consistency?

And my little vespa Streetracer pretty much finished

I wonder if him and Oddbod will meet up wherever the both are so Oddbod can finish off what he started in the interview room

My latest aquisition.Bit more of the sleeper look with this one
-
Although the type of keep would probably be different Id say that the type of man who can condition one breed for top level competion could more than likely turn his hand to conditioning another breed for a different sport.Also hes likely to be the type of manWhos willing to put the money,time and effort into turning his dogs out in top nick.

Ive always found any Ive had really eager to please their owner.My old bandog I have now is exactly the same.As long as she understand what I want from her she will do it.And Ive never had to physically reprimand her,Just a Stern word or a look is enough to upset and trying her hardest to please me for the rest of the day.

Another thing the same bulldog men brought to the coursing dogs.Selective breeding and line breeding
-
Id say its no coincidence that 2 of the top coursing men of the late 90s early 2000s were ex bulldog lads

I couldnt be arsed with the greif any more.About turns every time a dog appears over the horizon and heart in your moth if one appears from around a corner.Mad thing is that the totally sensible,stable bitch I had a pedigree that was full of dogs that were known to be headcases wheras the little psycho was from a line of dogs that were very well balance in fact his mother and his grandfather who was a ch could be trusted around most dogs when not at their work.He just wanted to kill everything on slightly from day 1

Bang on.I can remember bringing a little 12 week old dog pup home who only topped out at 26lb grown.I had a couple of terriers here and a bulldog bitch who was 100%around the terriers and would work along side them and Any other lads dogs I was out with.She could also be left with other biches pups.I thought being a male he should grow up around my bitches fine.I carried him from my car through my back gate and dropped him down and he ran straight across the patio and grabbed my old terrier bich through the head and started shaking her.Fom that day on he couldnt be trusted with anything on 4 l

Just look for a Shepherd from health tested parents with decent hip and elbow scores.Then check that the parents have good nerves and that should be enough.Unless you're going to give it a serious amount of work you dont need anything from serious working blood lines.
