  1. Its all my land after 12 said what I was saying a bit better. Let's compare lurchers to pits You might have a gh that is fast as you like but it won't catch too much by itself. Cross that with a terrier and you're going to keep most of the speed but add in a little more grit Cross with a saluki or collie for stamina With pits you take a dumb (or dead) game line and cross it with a hard mouthed line for a box dog Jeep/redboy for example Or jeep/redboy/jocko The jrbj LINEBRED dogs always need some extra vigour at one point or another The best lines nowadays s
  2. Well. Al the ones ye English have been given are prob trainable obedient and totally adorable.the proper working wheaten line would never be passed on to people who spend their days on the hunting life and rightly so. So how would you know this then?
  3. It's a handsome thing that
  4. If you already have an idea in mind then youve probably seen the stamp of a dog you like. Once you get 2 bitches and 2 male, of seperate breedings, along with 2 other studs, of the type you're wanting I.e.; good workers, consistant coats etc. Then you may be good to go - you can breed from these and not cross genetic paths till 4th gen or so I think that works out right
  5. Or you could post your dogs out of two first crosses, still making it 50/50 Nothing wrong in that...
  6. I know it's an old topic, but those long tails are slimey little b*****ds so I'm sure they're not all gone just yet Plant mint up and down the hedgerow. I know it sounds strange but they have a really acute sense of smell (and my grandfather swears by it). I'd get dogs in there first though. Mint'll only move them elsewhere
  7. I'm on my phone so I can't see your location. There's a couple of second hand shops in Brighton that do them, both down the lanes. Pm me of you're far away and I'll have a look for you next weekend
  8. That's a lovely looking dog, although that head seems to be from something other than what I know as 'bull'. I think I could hazard a guess at what. Either way - its a fine looking animal that seems more than capable! Could you expand on the 'aluant programme' or point me to somewhere else? Pm if you prefer. Sounds interesting Thanks bud
  9. That's a nice looking pup Actually, it looks a Nice place too! Atb
  10. can I ask how much she runs them They have a sled and harness that they use in the winter, and they get out a lot more than most dogs I know too. Perhaps its not enough for those type of dogs? I dunno? They're friendly enough, but unless a dog is specifically for fighting other dogs then it shouldnt be fighting other dogs
  11. Cannot stand huskies. My ex's sister breeds them. In the 3 years or so that I was with her, whilst they had them, they killed 3 dogs that they knew The other sisters Cavalier, which went down just as well as you can imagine, their own newborn pup and their own year-or-so old pup too Not kennel dogs at all
  12. Funny you say that - there was supposed to have been a big dog fight at dagenham market today... I didnt see it, but i did see the RIOT police that came to deal with it. If they was a dog they'd be called a jacker!
  13. Aye, but they've got a £2m budget to do it again in 24 months too Sounds like they'd e grateful for the help... P
  14. Pet passports are far easier to get than you'd imagine, I've been led to believe. If someone does this kinda thing full time, or for a living, or is lucky enough to be retired then this seems golden. If it was my scene then I'd call them, ask for transport and accomodation to be sorted, and charge 30p a rat or something? Im unsure what the rates are for terrier clearance but I do know what a pest controller can charge just for a feckin' callout! A lot of guys probably clear rats for free, just for the love? Anyway, I hope someone gives them a call - the worst they can say is 'no'! a
  15. I'm not a ratting man, but can't knock those that are - I understand having a passion for the dogs! This might seem a little far fetched, but there's a real opportunity for the right guys here. There's not many a place better to aware people than this forum either. South Georgia is a seabirds paradise. Its also a British colony plagued by rats. So much so, that they've just hit the headlines for the largest ever poison and eradication project. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-23143430 http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2013/jul/04/worlds-largest-rat-extermination
  16. As it goes, my aunt used to have an egg farm in the Ribble Valley and she reckons that the best ratting dog she had was a springer bred down from my fathers gun dog
  17. whats his initials? I may know him from way back when...
  18. I recognised that land as soon as I saw it. Location confirms!
