    there are two things i love to see out hunting that draws me to lurcher work, one being out in the day watching the dog getting a scent trailing it up body tensed tail up getting more and more excited as the scent gets stronger expecting a bolt at any second and out lamping watching the dog twisting and turning all over a good rabbit but the rabbit just cant shake him off and then a good strike

    alright lads just back from walking the lurcher pup, shes only four months but iv been thinking iv been walking her with the pack or just the whippet and she is very bold for a young pup but have started to walk her on her own to let her build her own confidence without the reasurance of the pack and you can see a bit of a difference in her behaviour. just like to see your opinions on this and do you think it makes a difference in a dog in the long run or will that confidence come later....

    i have whippets and they would take hares and they seem to do it well but there are better dogs that would be a lot better suited to the job to bring up your bag

    i had the same problem with mine just make sure its warm bedding its well wormed and feed it loads of raw meat itl soon put on a bit of weight

    no my bitch is the same shed go hunting any weather and lives outside all year round

    the bitch that took that fox is mostly barnesmore breeding (mainly show lines) but of a strain the breeder kept for working in previous years. i agree with sonny brindle that most will if given the chance but theres more to a working whippet then that ie hardyness and ability to take nocks

    iv been running kc reg whippets for a number of years now nd have found the strain im running to be very good nd have got large bags, just wondering does any body else run them and what do they think as they get alot of stick as only being show dogs but i think its down to bad lines?
  20. _Sean_
    i would great interest have a smashing kc reg bitch just no transport shed put a lot of lurchers to shame and only 14 months

    how long you going out for each night? and what X is your dog? 3-4 hours average but i do have longer nights. shes 3/4 whippet 1/4 beddy which suits the ground im running but looking at her behaviour she dosnt loose her drive shes just not at the constant quick pace she was? nothing to worrie about heavily worked dogs dont look over impresive especially on the rabbits mate, like you said they lose there quick pace and tend to catch most of there quarry on the hedge. what you should find is as she has steadied up her running style will chance a bit, and what she lacks in her normal pace

    i have only one dog at the moument and have been doing a lot af lamping recently which puts a lot of strain on my bitch as shes takeing the full work load herself and iv noticed shes not running to her usual standard after a few weeks of nearly every second night lamping. how long should a dog b allowed to rest up or do yous advise any thin else to build her up?
  24. _Sean_
    iv had the same problem just use vasiline and tape but it never really stops untill its fully healed just try to minimise it
