  1. The Hunting Life Worldwide hunting with lurchers and working terriers, ferreting, pigeon shooting, falconry and other fieldsports. www.thehuntinglife.com/ - Cached Thats what comes up when you type the hunting life into google. WORLDWIDE HUNTING. Some morans out there. Clint, take her away from the pup altogether and like the genuine lads said, exercise and epsom salts
  2. I've been to one of RISE's roadshows and they did talk about the situation in the north. I don't know the timescale on bans being implamented in the north but i'm sure that they would offer help. They need people to organise roadshows in local areas. This is how the grassroot hunters will find out the extent of what could happen. This will be primary legislation if it gets through it cant be changed.

But one fundemental fault that accured at the begining of this ten - fifteen year spate of serious dogs is that the wrong sire got the credit due to a dishonest man. So after the blood of great workers slowly got thinned down to the water we have at the minute, by using the dishonest mans blood (dont get me wrong, his dog was excellent too, but not the Xblood) we ended up with substandard stock. So
  5. I've just read David Harcombes latest book. I found it refreshing as its the first book on terriers and their work that i have bothered to read. The reason i found it refreshing is because I read more or less what i've been thinking/practicing. Its provoked me enough to start a topic on here. As was reading a book on the subject this is a first too. I enjoyed reading about his love of and more so his devotion to the upkeep in quality of the earthdog and even moreso the honest terrier man. I find it very hard to find good dogs but even harder to find honest men. The standard of working terrie
