  1. This pretty much sums it all up to me. There are loads of arguments for keeping them both inside and out but IMO they have no bearing on the ability of the dog. The kennelling vs house debate is purely down to practicality/logistics/cleanliness/number of dogs of each different household and what works for the owners Right with you there, and also the fact that if you live in an area that is fairly regularly patrolled by those of a wandering nature and 'scrappys', I think you'd be a bit uncomfortable with your dogs being kennelled full time
  2. Lol, nice bright little pup that. Is it a 1st x beddy/whippet?
  3. How is the dog you've got now bred? The one that's had feet injuries etc
  4. Understand what you're saying, it's just that I personally feel alot easier when they're in the house
  5. Having kennels comes in handy, but I personally wouldn't keep em kennelled full time, far too many thieving nerks around, and I also believe you do get a better bond, and enjoy the company of a dog around the house anyway
  6. You could look for a pup with deerhound blood as well as collie, very good feet
  7. Certainly looks a useful type, and one that's got me a bit interested
  8. That's a good looking dog, and I'm not really a bedlington x fan lol
  9. Didn't fence hopper off here have one from heartbreak's? Looked to be a very useful dog for most things, and I don't think his was a big dog
  10. I was enjoying the banter there! You've gone and spoiled it now best thing to do with that post....ignore!

  12. I think the reason there isn't many around is that if you've got a deer/grey bitch then you like a dog with a bit of height so aren't gonna want to put a 19" whippet over her. I'm sure they could make handy dogs. Not only that, there's also the fact that in the last 15-20 years alot of the younger guys have come along with the bull x, and in my opinion that's really when the whole mess regarding dogs being tried too young and ruined, sold, swapped or whatever started. I 'm sure that many of the older members of this site will know of and remember more than a few Deer/grey x whip/grey
  13. Said it before ,and I'll say it again, don't care what or how other people call it, fun, sport, testing their dogs, whatever, hunting in any form is exactly that, hunting. To me it's never been 'sport', as that implies straight away that you're doing it for fun, and if I wanted to see sport I'd go to the nearest boxing tournament. As to whether hares are easier to catch on the lamp, yes I agree that in some areas hares are more easily cought on the lamp than in daytime, but there are also plenty of places where you need a very good dog to catch em on the lamp.
  14. Because they are the ultimate prey !! And should only be run by Saluki Hybrids !! They should never be lamped or run by inferior hounds !!! Cheers. lol
  15. Understand exactly where you're coming from,and agree entirely with you, but common sense and the general public, especially when it comes to anything rural or wildlife oriented, don't go hand in hand, sad to say. Been banging my head against a brick wall on this subject to many of my family and friends for years, to no avail lol, anyway,have a good new year, a l b shaaark
  16. You got too many things on the go at the same time, slow down boy, slow down! lol
  17. just got back in from 200bar fill, didnt take long lol i shot four mags through it , and its inbetween 100-150 bar, so say 125bar lol i think you could possibly sneak an extra ten shots out of it. they recomend you fill to 232,but as it hasnt got a reg i thought id just fill to 200. the 10 shot group i did at 35 yrds, 8 of them u can cover with 5p coin, two are either side, i put it down to wind,because it was slight breeze too, but when i got home i noticed the bloody silencer was loose-ish. enough to make a wobble noise, so il just have to take it back out tomorow lol one thing iv noticed
