Right behind you on this one Ditch..... The same subject used to rattle my old man's cage really bad when I was a kid. Used to 'holiday' at Formby Point caravan park every year when I was growing up. Cheap and close to me Dads work, as he never had a day off, so me Mam took a job in school dinners an we'd get dumped there for the entire summer hols...... fantastic!! Place was crawlin with critters, rare ones too, Natterjack toads and Sand Lizards, me Dad loved to take us out on them long nature walkes in the evenings, spotting such creatures in the last of the days sun. What re

There's still a few about if you know where to look. Kept and dug to a few Park bred dogs over the years, never 'seen' a bad one.

A bit early to start.......? Well, for me i'm always looking at Lurchers and the various crosses that make up this wonderful type, even when i've got all I require in the yard. So, after losing my young bitch I suppose i'm gonna have to start looking at just what I want from a lurcher these days, i've just gotta start doin my homework!! The funny thing is, this site, I trawl through the various posts on this and that cross, virtues and pitfalls ,of course its gotta be one of the ports of call in my search but it just seems to bog me down. I feel mixed reactions to posts that go up (us

Now i'm not a fan of going for a shine this time of year, just never seems right for me. A mate of mine has asked me for a bit now, to help him out thinning some rabbits on his land. He has a young collie x on and though shaping up well, he's still very puppyish, so I was asked to give him a lift. Ok, not a problem we have been before and to be honest it would be a good opportunity to keep Bella going, as she's been doing so well. First bit of wind for a bit an it's GO! First field and a few sat out, wanted to see his young dog so he got first slip.... missed, though getting bette

Recon that would be due to those leather 'hotpants' you keep wearing SS -
Best fox night, 9 with two dogs. Best rabbit night/nights, 30 each night on successive nights over the same ground, one dog, same dog both nights, (had bigger hauls on single nights out but those two were....a bit good! Best night, 2 foxes, 2 hares, five bunnies, one dog.

Just what i was gonna mention, SS does any type of collar with a refletive strip and they really can come in handy. Got some years ago and wondered if it would work, it does and now Strong Stuff does 'em. Used if two dark dogs are running, you can tell which is which, though i'd blacken one strip in patches to tell the difference, bet SS would make 'em up different if asked nicely. If your dog is running single it sorta keeps one eye on the dog whilst your concentrating on your chosen quarry with the lamp, you get a better view of the twists and turns just out of the main beam.

Started to watch the first few episodes, some fit women all hot an steamy from the tropics but came to realise two things.... One, they are never gonna get to the end with it and i'll always be 'hanging on'. Two, must be a load of shite as that fat fecker never got any thinner living on a tropical island with just fish and coconuts for grub. Arse!!!

Alsationx's are very handy dogs, a few off here have 'em. A mate had a Dalmation x a few years back, one hell of a fox dog, he was willful and to fond of a 'tear-up' in the back of the motor for his liking (I hate kick-off merchants too). Nice lookin mutt. Labrador x's seem a bit rarer, probs due to supposed litter wastage but looking at quality working labs they have a good shape. A mate of mine who penned a few articles in EDRD had one, he wrote under 'Greylab', he's a good mate of Mr1 off here. This dog had a decent reputation around Liverpool, this dog had all the lab qualitys but

I know how I got started..... but I've never figured out why I started.....?? I've ponderd this a bit over the years..... what makes some people love to hunt, with others indifferent and some a loathing to it?? The 'rush inside' from the chase, the addiction to the game...... seems to come from somewhere deep.......? Was it from something seen, or, did it come from way back......the way we are bred....... our ancestry......? Is it consistant with generations (my fathers side hunted) or does it slumber and re-emerge........ I have two brothers, one indifferent and one loathes...

These are quotes i have read in books i found it a little hard to believe but my 6month old pup is clearing 4ft fences with ease am struggling to think what heights he will be clearing when hes older plummers dog jumped on to one and then down the other side at lambourne, wildfinder witnessed it. and mine can jump over a 4 ft wall which is bout 6 ft to get back and they both do it with ease. Yep, I did hear that it was on top then off the other side but if I remember right, the claim was that it had cleared it.

They look well, good luck with your choice
