  1. Ye keep them in a tight circle then you go a give a couple to people you dont even know,bit of a contradiction that.Is there any of the Cork stuff in the makeup of your dogs. What he meant when he said he didn't really know the lads he gave the pups too was that the other lads who have them with him know the lad so there wasn't really any contradiction. The pups are doing well andy. Are any of those the mother of them
  2. Just letting you know boys the bitch has gone, thanks for the interest, Cheers snoz
  3. She's a pure welsh bitch of good type , she's well put together and although I've been told she's well bred in that she's from decent working hounds ,I don't know her specific breeding. when a shot goes off near by her she just comes out of the cover sulking and finds me .She doesn't bolt at the shot just isn't happy when it's to close Ps she's hunting , drawing on her own and joining in a mark and if she carried on as she is in a few seasons she would be worth having a litter out of. She's pure white with tan ears and tan patches over both eyes. I don't know how to post a photo mate sorry.

  5. Ive got a third season welsh bitch that unfortunately is gun shy , Ive only got a small pack and the covers we push through to guns can be quite small sometimes . If a fox is shot out of one of these small covers the bitch sulks after the shot as its obviously pretty loud . If the shots in the distance she doesn't bother. As everything we have has to play its part as were only a small outfit unfortunately she has to go. This bitch is too good to be put down. she draws,hunts is ok in the kennel and will join in a mark so would be ok for someone who can either just take her on the big days or ha
  6. If the great one wrote it, it must be gospel!!!!!!
  7. I like that one but drink puppy drinks a better one, especially after a good day and a few pints!,,,
  8. The Inverness range from decathlon are good they make a thorn proof or a water proof hunting pant they both need a good belt on but the water proof ones get a bit heavy for walking any distance, the thorn proof ones are ok though IMO

    Kevk you've just found out what the only down side to working dogs is, The waiting!!!!!!!!! You should be having this conversation this time next year mate, until then you'll have to do what everyone else does ie stroke it,feed it,clean it out, and dream about how good it's going to be!!! .I wouldn't even be taking it when your hunting yet even if its just bushing because you don't want the pup starting to think it can't catch and having a hard time get through the cover because it will stop trying and that'll make it harder to enter when the time is right
  10. Ive got a couple of beagle spaniel crosses that I run with our little gun pack and they are great little things and will draw but not as far as the full hounds there ok on smaller pieces of cover but there not going to draw a fell side without being dragged on by the hounds and they will take a line but it has to be a lot fresher for them to go on it without again being dragged on by the hounds . They can also be got back a lot quicker and easier even when there flat out than full hounds, it's horses for courses they would be ideal as has been said to do little spots for the lurchers or to gun
  11. wxm surely if you wanted the numptys not to get hold of your pups the thing to do is give them to your mates and not let them go anywhere else, problem solved . Sorry boys but imo the people who sell pups do it for for one reason and one reason only and that's to get the cash. Having said that sometimes there are good reasons to sell your pups ie paying towards feeding the rest of your dogs or maintaining your kennals etc but the big money sales are for personal gain which if that's what floats your boat no probs but don't try and justify it as something else eh!!!
  12. See the thread on gun dogs and retrievers under drahtar for details, cheers

  14. Is anyone interested in an imported German wire haired, (drahtar) the dog is 3 in dec has passed ALL the German tests VJP,HZP,VGP and competed in the German hegewald and gained a score of 219. He has been tested for hip dysplasia and the canine ocd and is micro chipped. He has reams of paperwork proving all this and to be perfectly frank is an absolute machine of a dog. Now you ask so why is he on the transfer list!!, The reason is that I have a small gun pack and keep terriers, I bought the dog to be an all round addition to my little outfit to do everything I do now and also use for the
  15. Totally agree jeemes, can't see how he's saving the breed by selling pups for 900quid , best two dogs I've had we're Sealyham types bred by the lads from cork after they put a dog from Durham into their own closely bred stuff as an outcross. Both dogs were gifts the first one getting on for 20 odd years ago and the second about 12 .i approached this guy whos saving the sealyham at the midland a couple of years ago at his display of working sealyhams he said he could put me on a waiting list for one at a grand. He also showed me his iron hard digging dog which didn't have a single blemish on it
  16. For the record Penny , you could still put my name on a pup (or even 2) if you did put dill back to her father. I havnt found one yet!!
  17. "]That's me sorted for pup. Cheers folks I've got a young very small 19inch pure fell bitch in pup to a working beagle , if you don't get fixed up or it falls through give me a shout
  18. try putting a new battery in ithttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/High-Quality-Battery-Cell-For-CE-UK-Stock-Garmin-DC40-2200mAh-Li-ion-/290912892313?pt=UK_CE_GPS_Accessories_Software_ET&hash=item43bbc27599 Eone of mine always says it needs charging i think it is a hardware problem, but the battery is easy to change just make sure you put the seals back carefully. Nice one I'll have a go at that ,there to expensive to bin. Cheers
  19. Sounds like great craic, would've liked to have seen that, but he ho story of my life !!!!!!!, always to late lol
  20. One of my collars won't turn on even when it's fully charged, has anyone had simpler experience , I think I've knackered it up by just banging it on charge when it's not been flat. I think it may have developed a memory now and won't charge. Any idea's!!!!!!
