  1. I really enjoy watching a good spaniel at work, he seems a great dog "murphy" if memory serves me right well done Nic, He's a cracker isn't he Welshboy, there is another member on here who has some good clips also, waterpower search that. Some great footage. Well done to all involved.
  2. haha unreal some of the set ups, what dimensions are you thinking of for yours mate?? There is nothing up with one built by yourself, you'll be doing it exactly how you want it, and when its compete you will be made up with yourself.
  3. NOW heres a thought why are english springers more populer than welsh springers? what a silly naive comment total different kettle of fish.
  4. cracking kennel, wish i could have something of that size with all the right resources, cracking stuff looking to see more of your great set ups.
  5. good news mate, get everything in place now, a vet which will dock, and a whelping box organised or a safe place for them to go. Tell us abit about the stud and what price you after
  6. I like the lad, his skills aren't wonderful but he's a tryer and he's a good character for the sport, got loads of improvement left in him so i wish him all the luck. regarding the fight though i think mcdermott won, but hey atleast there should be a rematch. Good to have some lads earning a buck and enjoying what they do.
  7. thanks for the advice, he is going to the toilet now with ease, still not happy with the whole situation though, he is hard work to feed. Won't eat out of his bowl, tried to give him some complete food-not going down well, had some raw food out of my hand to make sure he's eating. heart, and bits of beef. We wil get there, forgot how hard it is having a puppy again, everything is so easy with a well trained dog haha. Hopefully he will turn out better than my bitch, he's got the makings BOLD, picks anything up, in and out of bushes in the garden. So fingers crossed, just have to take m
  8. souds like you have over done the retrieving, he sounds bored of it now, i done the same with my spriger bitch, I would honestly leave retrieving now for a good while, less is more in alot of cases, he needs to be enthusisastic again, when you do introduce it make sure its done as a huge game and not a training drill. Hope I have been of some help, its a bad experience what we have caused.
  9. Well all, a new springer pup has found me, wasn't intended what so ever but he has settled in really well with my ESS bitch and my brothers Border Terrier which ive got for the week. He is at the vets in the morning for his 1st jab and a lil' once over, the problem is as stated above he is struggling to pass, and when he does his poop has alot of hair init. he has lived on a sheep's holding aswell as a run with his mother for the past week. I just want to clear him out, will be having a wormer in the moring and I'm just after some tips, what foods are good and anything else. He has had
  10. good looking dog, hope he does well for you, keep us informed on his progress
  11. Wat do you mean by betting dog????atb dell no ped pups . chance dogs, you take a chance and get a good one bad one it is a chance you take , you can bet your boots if it is a good one then you cant stud it out cos no one wants a dog with no papers so what do you do if it is ? . he has mis-spelt it,betting dog, he means beating dog!!
  12. what have you. as said above
  13. got my brothers Border terrier for the week, whilst he is away on his hols, the dog is looking real scruffy and is in need of stripping, anyone let me know how you do it. I'm not being a tight ass, he is a house dog, so won't make too much difference.
  14. great shout, we live in a lifestyle when everything comes on a plate, people don't try hard eough anymore, this is why there is so many crap dogs about. No1 will put the effort in to see the dog come right...if they did the feeling you get is unreal. nothing better than bringing a bad dog on and turning it good. well done to all who are doing it, good to see something being put back in to these wonderful animals who serve us with everything they've got if you treat them right.
  15. Got my brothers Border Terrier for the week, he is need of a tidy up, if anyone can descibe of how to do it and maybe include images it would be much appreciated. in wrong location can you please move to suitable spot Mod's thanks.

  18. such a disgraceful act, wish you all the luck in the world and i genuinely hope there is a good outcome.
  19. I read that one in the CMW, great article.
  20. my friends dog came home with a certificate of merit, thought the outcome could of been better.
  21. GOOD LUCK mate, hope it goes well...do the best you can possibly do and you will have some good one's on yoyr hands. Be prepared is the best thing i ca say. Also use a dog which is good at the dog, with her being a maiden bitch. Looking forward to every little bit of news. Regards RS
  22. doing well,buzzing for you mate, she's a cracker
  23. okay no worries mate, you didn't mention anything about having another Springer when you took this one off your parents, look at your topic post regarding it, you only mentioned about having Lurchers and you wanted to know which way to go about training a Springer, I can remember the thread. It doesn't matter anyway mate, we all have our reasons, if your wanting to keep a pup back thats fine. No argument intended. Back to the breeding have you got any stud dogs lined up, seems like alot of the lads off here are from the N.E so you may not have to travel too far. Put a real good do
  24. You are doing a great job, you have truly got a good head on your shoulders get some image up, it sounds great.
