  1. Into the twentys running in feilds with rabbit proof fencing ~ stone walls very easy pickings
  2. Aye I keep finding conflicting information on the internet and cant asertain what fact or opinion or even scientifically researched..
  3. Half a pound of animal fat and a pound of Beef ... Staple diet. Last night whole rabbit and half a pound of animal fat.. I aint fed any veg and carbs ~fiber would be a handful of decent grade kibble. Its actually not 100% fat, its marble beef fat minced but its still got a bit of red meat through it. Dogs been out every night since sunday This feeding regime has not been strick and only started with the fat since the last week in Aug,when I starting getting dogs out more.
  4. Paulas that was from a uk site and adviced in colder weather to up the fat lol It hard to gage wether or not foods improved dogs proformance as they should get fitter ~ better as season goes on. Be easier in greyhounds sled dogs are they are running year round ?? Was intrested in fat for a starting point, Then I will be able to ajust as needed currently giving half a lb of animal fat..
  5. Cheers for replys.. Just more food for thought Lurche I follow what your saying and understand the theory of ketosis in humanes.. Are you saying they require high protein and very little carbs, what about fats ?? If you broke down the dogs meal / bowl in percentages are you feeding 90% protein (meat) 5% carbs (some sort of veg or fruit) 5 % fat (vetable oil ~ animal fats) . Sled dog runners recommend a "typical diet consisting of 32% protein, 15% carbohydrates and 53% fat" Stating that most of the energy is provided from the fat content.. I know the sled dogs have to
  6. I have toyed with a mixture of raw and dry overs the years.. But have started to feed more raw again.. Just Ground beef and ground marble fat & Rabbits. I read somewhere on internet its recomended to feed 3% of a dog body in meat.. I have also been reading that dogs utilize protiens, carbs and fats differently to humanes and get energy from fats.. What per cent of a dogs meal should be fat?? 10% or higher ?? This feeding by the eyes ok but I get my stuff in bulk and condence it down into portions so its harder compared to dry to increase there and then more forward planni
  7. Tidy animal willow... Threads intresting. I wonder what these little cross bred dogs would be like,if put to a whippet or small whippet/greyhound..
  8. I would get a Blitz then fella.. I have had smaller lamps and now they dont even get wired up to the battery these days.. They aint cheap these days.. Would go for Lightforce I was not keen on Cluelights
  9. I dont even Mention dogs, if permission is granted I just rock up with dog. When farmers see it under controil doing its job they have no worries.. Just keep trying fella, you will get loads of knock backs but dont loose heart, you will get something if your keen enough.
  10. YOU BEEN GETTING OUT THEN I have had a few runs Sun/ Mon, will be out a couple more nights this week

  18. Bryn looks like a Minshaw jumping them gates fella.. Looking forward to the moon getting away and its game on for me
  19. Not actively however I was not opposed to it. I have no strong views either way upon it although I have contacted MPs regarding the repeal to gain their stance on the matter as it affects my own interest (hares). Going out to watch fell packs this Winter as I have had an invite from a friends family member and have seen the Bewcastle and Cumberland Farmers a few times over the years.. Previously I was attempting to see all sides of argument and find some of the statements on here not only ridiculous but ignorant.. Each to their own and all that bull shite, I could
