    One close shave which meant lying low in a ditch with the dogs for 20 minutes and got collared last season returning back to the car. The last one an unmarked car pulled up along side me and wanted to know why I had big powerful lamp scanning the fields.....it's to make sure my dogs don't run into anything in the dark officer.....makes alot sense mate he said... then he replied did you catch anything tonight.... told me to be a bit more discrete in the future....

    DH charges £200, which one you interested in? seen a few on his page born Aprill this year.... Oh ok thanks I was intrested in this 1: Rough coated fawn dog pup 3/4 collie 1/4 greyhound DOB 20/04/08 Nice 3 month old pup....it wont be house trained, broken into a lead and you'd be taking on alot. I'd go take a visit yourself, can't be too far from where you live, you make your own mind up if it's work waiting to pick a 10 week old pup up. Personally I would always pick from a litter. Good luck mate

    Cheers Wilf, I took a look, the closest description was below, but not to that extream, it was more like the dog was slightly drunk and lastest for 1-2 minutes and was back to normal. ' Moderate (Grand Mal) occurs when the dog falls down, loses consciousness and extends its limbs rigidly. Paddling of limbs, salivation followed by possible loss of control of bladder and bowels and vocalization (blood curdling scream) may follow. This may occur for 1-3 minutes and is most often followed by a period of restlessness, pacing, bumping into objects and loss of balance. Post Ictal period: The dog

    I feed the dogs on chudleys greyhound racer soaked, supplemented with fresh veg and chicken/rabbit.

    True, 99% of the time he shows no other problems. It doesn't seem to be progressively getting worse or entering into day to day life which the vet said he would be concerned about. The vets advice was 'not to run him to long and see how he gets on'. To be honest during last season he would be out for a good nights work and he would be fine. I was more interested to see if any one else had come across anything similar.

    Cheers lofti, baffling the hell out of me! the only thing I can possibly put it down to is dehydration, espically as the only time it seems to happen is during the off season. When he's lamping in the colder nights doesn't seem to be a problem.

    Anyone else come across a similar experience? My one dog, he's 2 1/2 goes into a state which is best described that he looks as if he's drunk after freerunning for 1/2 hour. He staggers side ways and falls over, walks off blind and doesn't respond to any commands. After a couple of minutes he's back to normal. The vet has checked him out and can't find anything wrong. This only every happens when he's free running.

    develop i had mine ferreting at 6 month he loved it .try it with another dog mate have you give it a taste of the old blood lol but if all else fails probably a late developer it will click if it is out of good stock Sound advice, your pup will learn from the more experienced dog. Be patient with your pup, personally I would wait until at least 12 months old, concentrate on good training
