    Lol fair point sir , been a while since someone called me a muppet on here lol
  2. shaaark
    Ok lol

    Yeah, not saying they are as hard as daytime hares in general, but plenty of areas around the country on the lamp they can be extremely hard to catch. But as you've pointed out, there are certain variables to be taken into consideration

    agree 100% people just look for a excuse saying there just as hard at night lol Yeah, my dogs were all slow bags of shite lol. Funny mind, these same dogs caught plenty of daytime hares as well as lamped ones. I'll say it again, some areas lamped hares can be extremely dufficult to catch with any dog. And by the way, I never have and never will keep a slow dog

    Great pics, scenery and some very very nice dogs, but those feathery eared things?! Uuurgh lol

    Some of the Irish lads do, oh yeah, and the guys with birds of prey, so I'm lead to believe

    That makes sense sir, also the fact that in many areas, especially lamped, hares will and do run just as fast as in the day, use the same tactics or whatever to escape and know exactly where they are heading, whether they've not been feeding, are slightly peckish, or full as f**k! Plenty of areas where they are as hard to catch on the lamp as in the day. And to the peole who say different, they couldn't have ran frequently lamped hares. Sorry pp, I know it wasn't originally a lamping question/post, but it bothers me somewhat when people say lamped hares are easy etc etc, most areas they certa

    Lol, I can see where this thread is going. Life's too short

    Don't agree with that at all. I've owned and seen some very fast dogs over the years that I was sure they were about to pick up some hares, only to see these same hares pull away, on the lamp!

    Seen more hares escape capture at night than the day

    Just a suggestion, seeing that she's not too big and is already a useful worker etc, with the amount of greyhounds that you irish lads have over there, couldn't you try to find a smaller size greyhound dog with similar qualities to your bitch and use that to cover her and keep back a couple of pups to run on as you would a lurcher? Probably take you a while I know, but could be well worth the wait

    iv had a few like that. this one thinks it a lurcher lamps an ferrets an dosnt hang about at gates good recall an broke to stock..not bad for a greyhound Sounds pretty good already, not lacking much at all id her out for a hare on sunday an there nothing she cant handle walked to heel an covered plenty ground...iv had worse lurchers Doesn't seem much point in putting anything else over her really. She sounds a cracker

    I'd say pick a pup of the cross, type or even purebred that you actually really like, cos if you don't actually like it you won't get the best out of it

    I wouldn't do it on busy roads but where I live I've got a circuit I do that's a mix of relatively quiet village roads and much quieter country roads. Plus I like to be all done and dusted by 7.30am at the latest, so I get most of it done when there's not much traffic about. Just a tad curious as to what time you get up? And why anyone who's not a competetive courser, and even them, needs to 'bike' their dogs anyway! No animosity, just curious like early as f**k by the sounds of it lol Yep lol

    Yeah, still a beddy x I know. But not strictly beddy x whippet. Some nice types here though, really like that one of rake's
  19. shaaark
    Don't really want to nitpick, but it's not really a beddy x whippet, although still a nice dog
  20. shaaark
    What you've just said there fella makes complete and utter sense
  21. shaaark
    Not had a pure whippet for a fair few years now, and considering the fact that I aint getting any younger, when it's really cold and wet, even with lurchers, I'll be doing something more sensible

    Class dog and man. Never get fed up of these posts
  23. shaaark
    That black and white dog pup, have his feet improved or bothered him in any way? Nice looking dog
  24. shaaark

    what species of cat was it rascaland what was your mate doing out with it ? lampin Big cats roaming around this little Island of ours?! HEHEHE It was a long way off. Was real dark in colour. Not as big as a panther type cat but much MUCH larger than a moggy. Watched it jump a 5 bar gate from about 3 foot away and clean over the top and over the other side. Not disbelieving you, seen a few things that have had myself scratching my head over the years
