  1. Nowt wrong with a girl having a bit of exaust..... As long as theirs plenty of it, it's those types that say they never fart that do the damage, because when they do.... That smell will feckin kill ya :sick: !!! Also, if you have a lady that crack's 'em off like a bloke, she can't say feck all when we do it....! (Unless we give 'em that good 'ol Dutch oven treatment )
  2. Bang a greyhound over it and advertise the pups as some new fangled super aquatic lurchers, as well as HJCKC they can sideline to rescue fishermen Some on here would!!! Seriously Jigsaw, fair play to you, helping when a dog needs help, commendable
  3. Congratulations...... Best wishes to you all
  4. Well done Tomo, a good report on a cracking night
  5. Very sad to read that.... It's so tough to lose a dog making a promising start.... Best thing is to 'dust yourself off' and plan for the future, best of luck....
  6. A good honest post Lucky and right on the money Pics of this, pics of that, its seems incessant! I wish people would take the time to search old threds.
  7. I remember that little American bitch, very impressive, she had half the field (spectators) wondering if she wasn't a lurcher! Some of the most interesting action in the Cup since a local rougue slipped his lurcher 20 years since!!
  8. A long time before Plummer (or anyone else!) started writing books on the 'virtues' of all an sundry crosses, there where Lurchers kept of unknown ancestry and breeding..... Worker to worker, with no definate 'type'..... maybe so but collie and grey have always featured whether it be the old smithfield collie or the present border/beardie x....Poachers of old knew the virtues of such a x....and didn't kill for killings sake. I don't doubt that, Undisputed, collie has always had a part to play (and usually a big part at that!) but for me, traditionalist or not, and being old
  9. Looks like a very productive day So glad we are finally geting an honest report on a Burrell bred lurcher, and good to hear she's settlin down, I'm sure you'll get the best from her. Please keep us posted. Fair play to you Warren

  11. After reading that, I'm wondering too!!!
  12. Is that 'ol D.B. himself...? Life DID get tough 'up north'!! Are you 'sporting' that mullet?

  14. Whilst I hate to judge anyone by a photo, even if that dog was more than capable of taking 5+ foxes a night (and i've seen a few of that type that can) without taking any stick, even if the dog stayed on its feet throughout.... Those foxes certainly wouldn't have..... an what lovely fluffy beautys they are! It must have 'held' every one on its right side, as the left ain't seen dirt!!
  15. Right now...... In this climate.....? Lurcher X Lurcher....... Line bred....... from old and well tested stock....
  16. Line bred LurcherXLurcher, find a good 'un and the'll serve well, recently gone back to 'em after years in the wilderness!!
  17. First Lurcher, I was 7, first terrier 14 and never been without them since, i'm now 41.
  18. Very nice MW, voted She's from Inverness....... Bet she's not one of the 4&20!!
  19. Buy a copy of Plummers 'Fell Terrier' most of the above is answerd in there, a decent base to start. Plenty of stuff on here too, if you take the time to search.
  20. Good stuff Undisputed That'll do the old timer the power of good. I'm not a big fan of retirement for older dogs as they all still have their uses, retirement just sees them fade faster, we just have to respect their capabilitys as they get older, and that photo really prove's their's life in the old dog yet.
  21. sometimes you have to x breed to get what your looking for. Yes.... But only to improve 'working type' not 'working ability' Is that short enough!!! y not ability?surely if you x a jack with a lakie ur improving the ability of the jack Ehhhh???? Lets try and simplify things, without going on at this late hour.... Some people would, and do, prefer certain breeds over others for their work, and the ability of each breed may be different and suited to the type of graft they do..... This does not make any one breed inferior to another!! It's just down to preference..
