  1. No matter what your feelings on the subject, if that lads dog had caught them (instead of the lad shooting them) then that dog would have done very, very well indeed and I would be the first to say thats a top night and some good work for your dog.
  2. No surprise.........its gonna get busy local to dale farm very soon, chaos!
  3. HAHA........Go and get a job on a market stall or own a wholesale business, then come back in a year and see if you still feel the same
  4. if thats the case all your dogs will be world beaters lets see them Thats not what the bloke said at all, he simply wants the best stock he can get and imho, he is dead right
  5. Movie work is as boring as f**k.........
  6. Depends how far on it was, what I do know is, you love them all the same..........my niece is downs, but my brother has always treated her normally and taken her everywhere with him. Shes a young woman now, has a job and too all intents and purposes leads a normal life. Yes, there are certain things you have to consider that you wouldnt have to with a "normal" young woman, but we all love her dearly and our world would be poorer without her.........sometimes, you have to make the best job of what god gives you
  7. Theres no f*****g joy in having to cull any animal that you have had in your care mate and anyone who says there different is a bit of a twat imho. When you rehome something, all I will say is "Be honest about who you are doing it for".........is it for the dog or to make the ex-owner feel better.
  8. Dealt with loads of them mate, you have to be hard with them, give them an inch and they will try and take a mile. Normally they are shit scared of the law as well, so ask for your upto date payment at a certain day and time and tell them if its not there to the second you are away to put a charge on their house, but mean it! Let them know they will have to pay all the interest as well..........be hard with them, its the only way. Its the same with Africans
  9. :laugh: ............. I have been married 17 years, all I look for is a brew in the morning and me pants in the draw!
  10. I dont think there is a right or wrong, you cant look down on someone because they love their dog.........thats just plain madness, but at the same time you cant dig a bloke out who wont except second best either, if its not working for him then its not. The person who will move on has to feed the thing, pay the diesel, clean up the shit so he has every right to make that call IMHO............Its OK rehoming these things, and I have done it twice but only because I was sure and the dog had done nothing wrong, But if a dog is genuinely not up to scratch, why prolong the agony............a
  11. Windy, keep quiet when the grown ups are talking! lol
  12. I think, like horses, you get good "doers" and bad "doers"............if you get a bad doer, its a f*****g nightmare JMHO
  13. I would say 50 was a decent amount and more so if your were running at mixed quarry over the course of the season.
  14. :laugh: A fellow member of "The List" ............!!!! :laugh:
  15. if you mean they likely to run off and eat it i dont think this is the case,i asked about it few weeks ago dont think anyone really had any major problems...................good luck with the pups nightstalker The big fat f****r in my kennel will do it now and again, he bit one in half the other night and swallowed the head and rib cage before I could get him under control but for me, its not the end of the world........its so rare that it dont matter.
  16. I have seen red hinds that were only around the size of a fallow buck, the op would have had 31 runs on hares.........thats approx 15 for each dog or 31 doubled up.........on large fields that would destroy a dog as I know only too well. So those numbers dont stack up at all, but I also know that I have not been everywhere in the country so until I went to the place it was done and saw it with my own eyes I would never say never.
  17. We are talking about Minshaws mate
  18. Honest awnser, in the south, no way............in some of those walled fields up there...........its a f*****g tall order and I have never seen a dog that could or even been out with someone that would attempt it.........and if thats your area and you say no, then I have to bow to your better knowledge mate
  19. 50 odd what if you say hares mate????? i'm hunting a long time and this is some land yous have .fair play lads No sorry you misunderstand, you said "144 bits of game" that included rabbits, 7 hares and some roe.......least I think thats what the bloke said, so I think that can be done. All I will say is, I have seen a lot of people say things are bollocks, when I know they have and can be done.........
  20. Whats the terrain like in that area mate?...........have you run a lot in that area? (and no I am not being a funny c**t, genuine question)
  21. A lad did 50 odd the other night with his young dog, so why not?
  22. RE: Minshaws..........I have heard very good things from lads that never talk nonsense, so I dont really doubt those claims in that area.
  23. I think the question should be "where was it done" rather than what dogs or their age..........that would pretty much tell you all you need to know. Personally, I have only visited one place where you could see in excess of 40 hares in a night. What type of ground did they get ran on?
