I was over in England at a wedding in May.We were staying in the Northhumberland/Durham area. I could not believe the amount of rabbits up those hills. Wish we had them here. Hats off to you your dogs lads.
Cocker very good posts my friend, just a question, I have heard of people making their dogs sick so they can clear their stomaches of bile, have you ever done this?? Is feeding meat regularly hard on a dogs digestive system??
I have read most of plummers books and I have to say he is my favourite author, as has already been said I think he laughed at a lot of people in the working dog world and who could blame him?? Also my neighbour had a plummer for the last 5 years and it was one of the most impressive dogs iv ever seen above and below ground. He lost him last winter in a massive earth, this dog had to be dug out everytime as he stayed to the bitter end.It was his undoing in the end.
Anyone hear anything about 3 fellas being fined for illegal hare coursing in Meath recently?? A fella said it to me but I havent seen anything in the papers.
Good sensible posts by blitz and fox digger.No one is denying their guts but not a dog for a novice.Also id say we re agreed it best to buy a pup and socialise it from the start
Lads I bought a pure pit bull back in 2000.I had worked in New York the previous summer and seen some beautiful specimens over there so I decided Id get one the first chance I got.Anyhow found myself a nice litter and i got the pick.At the time I had 2 very good hunting bitches(jack russells).He was raised with these 2.From 3 months old he was following these 2 into ditches ratting rabbiting etc....This dog had no hunting pedigree that his owner could remember of but I can safely say he was one of the best hunting dogs iv ever had the pleasure of owning.Nose was as good as the bitches but what
His breeding to another hard fell antsa thats if he bothers to breed at all.This fella has no interest in breeding for selling but would like a pup or two coming on.Basically he is wondering is it worth the hassle i.e. listening to assholes in trainers talk about their bull x and not buy a pup and then been left with too many
Lads iv got a mate who has a top class fell bitch.4 years old hard worked.An excellent bitch who was dug yesterday after staying for 4 and a half hours.He was thinking of breeding from her when she breaks in the next few months.This bitch hunts above and below ground.Is there any point in breeding from her or is the market saturated as it is!!!
Lads why dont you remind your local conservative mps why they were voted in this time.Never been to waterloo but a lot of Irish people talk about it still.It was the greyhound equivalent of cheltenham to us.
Iv noticed this as well.I wonder are the mink and pine martens that have been released in our country in recent years having an effect on our sport.as you said yourself where are the tree huggers now???
