    My old saluki bull grey x my old saluki bedlington grey bitch, 8 years old now, probably about 3 on those photos. Now lives retired with my parents. The pup is about 9 months old, a 5th gen mix of mainly wheaton x bull x greyhound (not my breeding). Both parents doing the work and made just over 27" so fingers crossed for this pup.

    Lovely looking animal you have there! Here's my roughly 9 month old. The most placid laid back runner I've ever had but seems to switch on well. My only criticism is he's too sticky and doesn't explore enough on his own. I'm hoping he changes as he matures.

    Got out one day this week for a mooch, checked a few spots and nothing home, tried a place new to me on recommendation from the farmer. Steady walk to the place and all dogs marking well, looked promising. I dropped an older dog in that I've got on loan. 10 mins later he's baying away strong. Got a mark at .8, 1ft off breaking through and the mark changed. Opened out anyway and found they were big tubes. Let the dog work for another hour or so, he was getting pushed back and forth but eventually settles at roughly 2m and I believe he's at a stop end. Decided to start digging

    Only used it on one dig in the last few weeks. I can see why people put a bolt or pin through the centre to stop it unwinding. I dont use one myself though, just a slight twist technique every time you lift it back up cures that issue. Each to their own 👍 one i knocked up recently

    Couple of blue drums I use for the terriers. I had them laying around, they do the job. Easy enough to clean out.

    Thanks mate, much appreciated

    Young fella gifted from a mate, 11 weeks old and a character .

    Thanks for the heads up. If anyone sees somewhere that has stock, I'd appreciate the heads up .

    Just pm'd you Grunter. Struggling to find anything new, everywhere I've looked they seem to be out of stock

    Thanks both. I haven't got one yet DC, only been out with a friend a few times last season. The one in your pic is the same as I've used. Anywhere you'd recommend buying from?
  14. lampingboy
    Could any of you recommend your preferred locator box and where to buy from? I've read a few previous threads but they're a few years old now so thought I'd ask as technology and suppliers are always changing. I'm green as grass when it comes to digging so the only experience I have is with a yellow pieps box. Any suggestions appreciated

    Thanks both. I've had that exact situation with recall Neal. Because the bugger doesn't leave me, I've struggled to train recall with him the way I usually would. I'll give the woodland tip a go. I'm sure with some time and experience he we start changing. For now, I'll enjoy the puppy stage whilst it lasts

    Picked her up last week. Came off a local fella through a mate. 7 month old bitch, starting to come out of her shell properly now! A real easy bitch to kennel so far

    The little fcker beat the terrier to it this evening, his first rat and he wasn't keen to let go! It's the first time I've seen him move in anything other than slow motion
  19. lampingboy
    Thank you I'll update in the coming months.

    I may soon be eating my words when he comes of age. I've got a lovely little ferreting permission awaiting us in the coming months. I may give him a handful of days mid to late season all being well.
  21. lampingboy
    Good to hear DC, I was starting to think he was a bit vacant.

    I wouldn't necessarily say unhappy, I'd describe it more along the lines of being in a state of repudiation. I usually end up with little b*****ds, why has this one not caused me any significant drama as of yet?

    Looking for some advise/opinions. I picked this pup up at 12 weeks, he's 5 months next week. Admittedly I haven't spent as much time out with him as I normally would with a pup, mainly due to it being summer which is my busiest time with work. The issue ive got (if you can call it that) is When out and about, the bugger won't leave my side. During an hours walk, he may end up a maximum of 20 feet away from me maybe 3 times, usually he's just glued to my side or strolls along behind me like an old dog . He'll chase a dummy or ball if I throw it out for him and bring it back dependin
