WOW can't wait!.......great plains here I come!

She would like to know how many pure sighthounds are used, she quotes that most sighthounds in coursing are purebreds, I said that 75-85% who work running dogs use crossbreds...... here's the thread, please be polite if you decide to post, most are pet or show people, and this board although not anti hunting, it is discussed very gently..... http://houndtalk.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=4695

I'm Having a debate with a purebred Afghan owner, I stated that most dogs used for performance (working) are crossbreds, and she disagreed. This started over a shelter/recsue posting a siberian/grey cross, and I suggested that is was propably a mushers dog, since they do such crosses. The dog is in Oregon, US.... I posted forums and web site where such crosses are posted about, The debate started when I said that most people who use their dogs for a particular job often use crossbreds, two show people disagreed... so I figured I would post this question here....... if you where to put a

that map is too funny!......

Greg Donnell from the states used a 19" one and she has been a gem for bolts, and draws!.......she locates too...... the raccoon was released....for those of you who may have wondered....... Greg's main quarry for farmers is woodchucks and fox.

communism? didn't know England practiced it!

Yeah, and 3-50 on the spade and 0-1 on the bar but he's still training hard. Ouch!...... Jay I have a mile range shock collar you can borrow.......wonder what the odds are you could get trigger happy with the remote???

So the bottom line is he is choosing the dog (because he would be gutted to get rid of it) over the safety of his child, and wife---------> gotcha!........(Hmmmm? Will he feel gutted if the dog harms his wife, child or somebody else?)...

that's why you need to spread that story around like mad
