I found the same, some of the best spots I found and I live surrounded by the fens .On the A17 just past the Algarkirk roundabout the other side of the river on the left,the ground is soft and really tests your dogs stamina your dog will sink to its knees and the hare will skip across the top even on a good bit they fly I,v seen a few "good"dogs look less than average on there.The land opposite me is also good I have heard B Thompson say a few went on this land and could"nt put a bend in them I myself have seen dogs strait lined on land close to me around gosberton. The land around March produ

My dogs catch on any land it just happens this land is outside my door Iv run just about every where Iv got land in Grantham Boston Spalding Billingborough and in my humble opinion having been to Grimsby they are no better or worse the catch rate for a good dog remains pretty stable I wont get nicked I take a gun or bird with me as I have permission and my intention is to flush it just so happens some times I,m in the wrong place and the flush turns to a course. My dog has taken 6 and 7s on all land big and small it makes no difference to him,At the end of it all my dogs make me happy and unli

In what way does it f**k their coat,It has no ill effects on them at all I,v clipped dogs for 20 years and it grows back exactly the same the only thing is I dont get shedding in the summer do you often suffer touretts or are you a boy who says the first thing that enters your head.

A pick of the fen in winterNo hiding places for long distances no excuses your dogs have either got it or they have"nt.

It makes no difference I complained and they did"nt even reply I dont think there will be any change at the BBC or in the hunting act.I think you are better of taking no notice of either and just get on with what you do and draw as little attention as possible. JMO,

Just a pick of one of my dogs the one that gets the most workI clip all my long or broken coated dogs I find they cope better when the temp rises a few degrees as they get exercised before sun up and after sun set when its hot I don,t have to worry about sun burn.He,s already put a bit of weight on I,ll have to cut his food a touch .

cheers mark seen them advertised didnt know what kind of range was on them Buy a more powerful infra red light and it will increase the range of useful vision You can get a light a powerful as your normal lamp and see as far .I use one and can see about 500 meters with it.Eye shine prob a bit further.

I know of some one with this x put a whippet to his border bitch they turned out cracking pups fantastic for rabbit rat and general pest work I think a couple of them went on to kill fox on top and under hot tempered little feckers good coat good feet good drive.Give it a go I,m sure you wont be disappointed.

I,v registered dogs with the CC and had to write to them months later because the dog didn,t match the pedigree a bit embarrassing when it,s more than once.Some of them were blue when 6 weeks old but brindle when 3 months old.They all change a bit I now leave it a while just to make sure.

I find it difficult to believe when I read stuff like this I have any where from 7 to 15 dog here of any different breeds I,m the top dog when I see trouble brewing I put a stop to it instantly and permanently.They feed out of the same bowl ,if you have more than one dog you must command fespect from them all any biting will be done by me and only me .If they show no respect for each other what are they like when they meet other dogs with a strong personality .Bad owners not bad dogs .

lovely looking pup Thanks she,s been hard work I,ll be the first to admit she,s hyper and can be a pain in the ass but hoping it,s all worth she is the stroppiest pup I,v ever had headstrong lil cow.All the best with yours if yours is a day time dog do a bit of every thing with it just in case it does,nt make it.

I,V got a dog aprox 10 months old and I,m pretty confidant that come next Sept,Oct depending on the weather it may well be rock hard next Sept ,she will have retained enough of the lessons she has learned this year to be able and confidant when the time comes although she has not done a great deal this year she has seen plenty of what is expected of her by watching her elders.She,s had a couple of easy rabbits and has a enough idea what is expected of her after all what have people been doing for the first 10-12months of the pups lives mine was spent training and retraining not only running bu

Almost never if the coursing men that I,v mixed with are any thing to go go by I cringe at some of the memories of some of these so called coursing men many had good dogs but I would not have any of them at my house after a year old.Having had to listen to them screaming at the top of their lungs when trying to get their dogs back,even worse watching in disbelief as one of their charges chased livestock around.I was told on many occasions that all was needed was for the dog to come back ,as long as it knows it,s name was a common phrase.Most but not all dogs owned by these so called coursing m

They dont taste as good as rabbit. -
I like the look of the x smart looking dog if that was my only dog and I was looking for another working dog I would consider using her.Every one has their own opinions but the dalmations I,v seen have loads of stick and if that is all they added it would be as much as many other x,s JMO.

One of my old bitch sadly no longer with me She was a very capable bitch on many outings catching 3 and 4 on the fens .By far the best whippet i,v owned but I have a litter on the way of which I,ll be keeping them all so finger crossed I get one as good .

Find some one in your area to take you out If you can,t train or exercise it you should,nt be thinking of getting one just yet .Get some practical hands on experience from someone that has a few years working dogs not just daytime slipping but proper dog work a good all rounder that is trained to a high standard of obedience .Pick their brains of as much info on dogs as you can.Where do you live give some idea as to how much you know already also if keeping any animal out doors it needs to be in properly made accommodation not a drafty leaky shed made from old pallets and plastic sheeting.Wha

All in the mind A dog or horse happens to win after a certain therapy whether the therapy is responsible for the win or not market forces make other trainers dog horse owners use the same just in case. If a trainer produces the goods on a regular bases and his rivals hear his method of training included electric shock therapy all would try it not one would stop to think his results were linked to the fact he is just good at his job.Other owners would insist whatever treatment was reportedly used on winning dogs, horses was used on their own animals MARKET FORCES .This will be the last I write

It's not some tale it,s the law they don,t work it,s a fact if they did someone would challenge the law and change it.Providing facts that are proven they can,t they wont because no evidence exists try decca I,v heard that works your dog will run its self to death providing evidence of a better performance but only once. MAG BOX SALE NOW ON.If your quick you may get a refund on the one you already bought stating that it does not work as advertised.

Thank god some one with a brain so difficult to find someone with some common ,I do believe I read again on an official medical site that high doses of exposure to eletro-magnetic fields have caused cancer and tumours probably the warm feeling you experience good luck with your boxes your dogs deserve it .But as someone said why believe what you read on the web at least I bothered to research them before wasting money on one.If you think they work good luck to you.
