    Good job, although I still think some day it'll be bye bye bunny All it takes is for the rabbit to take a wee run to itself for that killer instinct to be set off...

    The coats look great! Is there an entry fee for the lurcher classes tomorrow? If so how much is it? Thanks

    Surely that's when fights kick off? Is in not better to have a more dominant dog and no competition for top dog? There was no competition, the terrier thought he ruled the place and didn't want the boxer near anything that he classed as his. Sometimes if I took the boxer out and left the terrier in the terrier would growl and snap at him when I brought him back in as if he was guarding his territory. In the end they had to be split up, the boxer died due to health problems(not anything to do with the terrier) and as long as the terriers here I won't have another male dog. He's just a

    Since the pups young it shouldn't really be a problem until the pup hits maturity and tries to be boss. When I had two dogs the terrier who was younger bullied my boxer from he was about 1 year old, the terrier was never done picking fights, the other male never fought back but the terrier still continued to bully the heck out of him. Sometimes I wish the boxer had of turned round and put him in his place! It depends on the two dogs personalities, some will live together the very best and some won't, doesn't matter if they are both dominant characters or not, the dominant one will always b

    My collie x whippet grey has an extremely thick coat, I actually can't keep her in the house because she gets too warm. Even when the heating isn't on/fire is not lit.

    Do the blue eyes affect their eyesight? Was told a while ago not to go for a merle with blue eyes as they tend to be more prone to eye problems. Don't know if its truth or lies?...

    I'm glad to hear, I wish you all the best. I'm sure once she gets more use of that leg there will be no stopping her
  12. Jesslurcher
    She has come a long way, you have my utmost respect Can anything be done to save/bring about more use of her leg or is it just a waiting game? I did notice she is actually using it a bit in that video

    Or is it a longdog.Is a longdog a lurcher ? A longdog is two sighthounds bred together for example greyhound x deerhound. A lurcher is a sighthound bred with a non sight hound, like a collie or some kind of bull to result in a smarter dog. I have a whippet x greyhound who is dumb as hell and a grey x collie who has brains to burn. Two different types for different things. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

    c**ts, I don't understand how people can steal others belongings, especially animals. If you want something work for it, get your own, don't steal someone elses! Hope they're found out! There's been a lot of dogs stolen up here lately, the people stealing them have been going round the houses and sticking tiny stickers on the gates that have suitable dogs, then sending someone else for them in the night. Usually they are used as bait to train fighters on, disgusting if you ask me..

    has ur dog ever jumped out of that run Funny you say that, I seen her trying it the other day and had to move the box into the middle so she can't hop onto the box and out. Trying to figure out what I can put round the top to stop her though

    http://www.reeveskennels.co.uk/ or I've also seen some pretty decent ones on ebay. Honestly I wouldn't spend the money on one when you can build it for a fraction of the price yourself. I had my pen made a few months ago, its roughly 18 x 12 foot but I only had to buy panels for 2 sides as I used the garden fence and shed for the other two. It cost roughly £500 for it all but it could have been done cheaper if I had of bought second hand panels. Looks the part, easily maintained and plenty of room for a stretch

    Thanks for your inputs folks. Decided to take the safe option and just give them a meaty bone each, less risk of them choking on it
  21. Jesslurcher
    I got given a whole pile of pork meat including a few racks of ribs. I'm not planning on eating them because I think they might be going a bit off but is it safe to feed the dogs? The actual ribs are only about 1-2 inch long, would it be okay to feed bones and all to the dogs? There's no sharp edges on them. Would hate to see it all go to waste
  22. Jesslurcher
    Rescues tend to see people that hunt as the reason lurchers are with them in the first place because some pass the dogs from pillar to post, would be best not to mention hunting I think
  23. Jesslurcher
    I hope to rescue and exracer/lurcher, although my dogs stay out and many dog rescues won't rehome a dog if its going to live outside. Pity because I'd love to take one on! It kind of worries me as to what I would do if it didn't work out though, I would hate to have to give it back...

    Lost a great dog last year, not a worker but jesus did I love that dog. Last time I ever had him out we just sat up the fields and watched the sun go down. Something just went wrong in his back and he had to be pts at the age of 4. I'll never find another dog like him
