    Risk Assessment form for ferreting? Eh, Shepp, do you need to have one for the permission your on or summat? Is it paid work, if so draw up you own. I'm at home not work otherwise i'd send you a blank. Heres how they go, draw up a box grid on 'excel' and put these headings in across the page.... First box 'ref no.', Second box 'Hazard' (what could cause harm), Third 'Risk of' (What could happen), Fourth 'Risk to' (Who might be harmed), Fifth 'Existing control measures' (List all measures you do, eg Elimination, reduction, isolation, training etc), After that four s

    Was just a thought Dan from this post. Really dunno what you would class as hot but i'll bet it'll be a damn sight hotter for running dogs than over this side! You sound like you got it covered though Dan and know your animals well enough. Though if 10 mins with a clipper would have it done, then it may be well worth it, getting him smashed up is one thing, you can usually see and treat it but him going over with heat stroke, especially when his bloods up and reading some critter its last rights, is something that can be seriousley difficult to spot till its too late. Hope the rest of the he

    its got feck all to di wi it being the norm....what is the point is there not enough breeds of lurchers out there to choose from,that would do the job better,ffs its just a money making scam by some dog peddlar prick my gran once owned a yorkie that used to slay rats...any terriermen fancy adding them to their bloodline its called trying some thing different if given the option,just like you not keeping the same car all your life .each to their own ,you just keep running the norm ,and those that want to try and go forward will try something different . i know what your saying mate,a

    Lets get it right Unfit, that cross in the Countrymans is probably bred just to make a buck, as anything with Poodle in it these days is fetching good money. Now as for Standard Poodle crosses, true Poodles are a gun dog breed and in France, they are worked effectivley still BUT 99.9% of them over here are bred just for the show bench and lets face it, Poodles have been one of the most popular and long serving canine show ponies. In other words, for the production of decent servicable Lurchers.... Shite! If someone was looking for a gun dog cross we have plenty here that are not show tai

    Fine animal Dan Would you not shave him down or strip him out in the summer to combat the heat?

    Would anyone on her know of an old line of dogs that come from the Welsh/Shropshire borders. That are reputed to be tidy allrounders. A bloke called Shropshirebull off here put a bitch up for sale about 18months back, saying it was one of these, nice old type and i've heared off others that they do exist, any more info to these dogs would be interesting, who keeps 'em going and why?
  10. Bosun11
    Blacktabs, you mentioned that old stuff you still keep a line too, Bodger's stuff, you said, would that be Bodger Quimby as that sounds like a name I remember from the past, though I might be wrong or confused? Either way, it would be interesting to know more about 'em if poss. I'm sure I read somewhere that Plummer's old stuff came down from J.Arigho's original stuff, all gypsy bred, would that be off Bodger?

    anyone in the right mind wouldnt get a 50/50 bull cross for bunnys and hares, , but a 1/4bull 3/4 grey is a diffrent matter, like anything some good, , alot more bad uns in what ever type of dog you get, , , why cant people just accept horses for courses and all that, some people on hear just like to argue, Folk have always been telling me i'm not of sound mind....Now I know :crazy:

    Good post Ray , think i've trod a similar path regarding the different crosses I've kept, i'll never decry the collie x, owned and seen enough good 'uns to know whats what, as you said, good and bad in all crosses but some feckers on here just get my back up, making sweeping statements without any knowlage or fact. Just read that idiots thred on his 8mnth old pup, standing there in his glowing white trainers and posting about dropped rabbits , nice lookin pup too, shame about the 'creetin' holding its lead!

    Whin, to add to the thred you don't have to post any pics. It was/is just a thred about old lines/strains/familys of dogs and they don't have to of come off anyone 'famous' either, just honest write up's about honest dogs.
  17. Bosun11
    If I was in the market for such an animal, then these would be the very ticket, nice to see more than a drop of Border in 'em, look a crackin litter too Warren, best of luck with the sale.

    Very sad news mate, just lost a promising young bitch myself, two weeks back. It's a sickener but onwards and upwards eh!

    Would that mean you were a WW2 greatcoat tied with string and hobnails to go with your little Beddy cross? I do remember one hunter of note wearing a pure white suit to the countryside march, i know it was London but the other million or so were mostley in green, couldn't tell if he was trying to look like a member of 'Shalimar' or 'Randal & Hopkirk (deceased)', eh Chalks
