  1. IF ONLY. DAYS GONE BY NEVER WILL THE WORKING [EARTH DOG] PLUMMER SINGLE HANDED DOG BISTOW US AGAIN, NICE PICTURE There's still some out there. FACT.
  2. why would anyone do that?? may aswell let the dog rag roadkill!!! Y'know-to give the dog a fair chance! Think about it-you go to all the trouble to catch it in the first place,then take it to the next county,in to the middle of a huge field,let it go-the dog misses! Choker! :sick:
  3. Top tip-when using droppers,tie the back legs together,just to make sure. DO NOT break the legs-that would be cruel.
  4. 3 OF THE BULL CROSSES WER LITTER BROSS AND SISTER # 1/2 BULL CROSS WAS MOTHER I HAD THEM OVER 2 YEARS RAISED 4M PUPS MOTHER HAD 2 GO 2 DOG HOME AND I STILL HAVE THE 3/4 BITCH TRY ASKEN FIRST. I BREAD A HALF BITCH AT 9 YEAR OLD STILL HUNTING WITH A TOP GREY HOUND STUDD ALEX REVENGE A LOT OF THOUGHT WENT IN 2 BREEDING , ALL DOGS TURNED OUT VERY FAST AND GAME ONE WAS TOO GAME DIDNT MATTER WAT IT WAS HE WANTED 2 PUT HIS TOOTH IN IT , PROBLY MY FAULT FOR NOT HAVEING ENOUGH TIME 2 GET HIM USED 2 LIVE STALK. PROBLY MY FAULT FOR NOT HAVEING ENOUGH TIME 2 GET HIM USED 2 LIVE STALK.
  5. :headshot:: Well done,you now have a hard mouthed dog that probably wont retrieve either. Try golf.
  6. Nothing wrong with that-the less work by dogs that dont= more for us that do imo!
  7. YEAH STRATHY POINT. 2ND PICTURE IS THE FLAT SANDY LAND OF DORNOCH. BETTER KNOWN FOR IT`S GOLF COURSES BEFORE MADONNA & GUY RITCHIE MADE IT FAMOUS. Dornoch is a ferreters dream,loaded with rabbits and easy digging (if a bit deep sometimes.) Plummer had/has his critics but merrab was a gifted marking bitch-uncannily accurate if one could "read" her. Her owner certainly could! I never saw him work,but Ilan was a handsome looking dog. I've seen pics of one of the current line that is very similar,and a good grafter by all accounts.
  8. Merab at strathey i believe? Not the easiest of running ground! There is a lot of speculation as to penguins breeding. I think Plummer mentioned "a bit of terrier"?

  10. So lets say you had one from handcock and it turned out a world beater. It would still not be worth breeding from because its parents didnt work and worse still-was bred by Hancock? All lines start somewhere.
  11. Good write up Stabs. I know what you mean about the fighting. Mine was fine with other dogs,and would not seek a quarrel-BUT-it only took a minor threat and it was as if a switch was flicked. No posturing or growling just straight in and no stopping,lightning quick. She was very good at her work though.
  12. One of my best was wheaten x. Quick,agile and very game.Good feet and jacket and very capable of taking a range of quarry,despite being only 22.1/2". Highly recommend one swagboy.
  13. Make your own. Use blue windscreen sun strip-I've done mine for years. On the striker it cuts down a lot of side glare and has a better beam than the old blue eye.The beam is less visible from a distance too.
  14. Hi,What sort of distance will the unit give on a decent scope in darkness? Cheers,Storm
  15. Theres a big difference between wolves roaming to find the meal they hunt,and running up and down the beam all night. The wolves will use no more energy than they have to,to achieve a kill. A hard nights lamping requires a dog to expend energy almost non stop-quite unnatural for a predator really,but they do it. It stands to reason that they should have something to draw on.
  16. doe's a wolf go hunting with half a belly full no. you carnt compare dogs to humans, dogs run much better on an empty stomach as long as yhere getting good grub no point in just feeding biscuit they need abit extra Wolves hunt to eat,then rest until hungry again. Hard worked lamp dogs run on and on way past what is needed to acquire a meal-they need something in the tank to draw on. Flints sprinter/marathon analogy sums it up.
  17. I give mine halibut pellets now and then-very oily and good for the coat.Not too many as they can lay on fat quickly if fed too many. Makes their breath a bit fishy though-you wouldn't want to kiss 'em!
  18. Plummers were line bred for nose and brain. Excellent they were too. A few lads still have one or two.......
  19. Well done lads. My sympathies to CW-rabbit bites hurt like a bitch-teeth are like blunt chisels. I was bit to the bone on my index finger taking a rabbit from the dog in the dark one night. OUCH! :piggy:
  20. 12 stellas,puke,shag......just needs a scrap for a perfect friday night!
  21. Tidy looking pups fireman. Hope they go to decent working homes.
  22. Hope you get them back soon John. Thieving scum are lower than pond life. Good luck mate.
