BREEDING

[SMART DOG 340]

Well this last week or 2 there has been a lot of dogs advertised for stud. i just wanted peoples opinions on what requirments the DAM/SIRE to have done and what age would you say a dog has been fully tested and to what standard you would expect

 

P.S i am not knocking any of the dogs that have been put up for STUD just a thread to get other peoples views

everyone has different standards.

 

I myself am only young and have only been hunting for 2 years so i am yet to reach a standard for anything as far as hunting is concerned

[Guest fence_hopper]

i find the bitches should be around 12 to 18 months old seen a handfull of rabbits or non and will never be tested properly...thats the case my way anyway, and seen it quiet a few times on here to. alb al

My opinion is that dog & bitch should be at least 4to5 years of age & proved them both selves worthy of such a mating.Any one can breed rubish to rubish just line their pocket's & their are plenty of them out their.My bitch was 5year's old when i breed her she was a good R&H dog day & night work's with my terriers & ferrit's i mated her to a dog called knobby's lad / price cut he was dave sleight's dog. Hope that might help some of you ATB.

i will be breeding off my beddiexgreyhound bitch in 2-3yrs time this will be the 2nd litter of lurchers i would of bred in 30yrs and she is only here to fill the freezer for my hawks as im not to bothered about the big game as much.so she will be working with the ferrets and lamping and when i get a pup from her they will both be working together.ive never been into dogs for money as i have gave 3 pups away from here to friends but if its people i dont no they will be paying for them every body is different

i have only bred 2 litters first one from a red lakeland bitch she was about four years old put to a 6 yr dog, she only had 2 pups and sadly they didn't survive, vet said it was put down to fading puppy syndrome she was then spayed, 2nd little was from my saluki/deerhound/greyhound 5yrs put to our own dog 8 yrs as we wanted 2 from the litter for our own use they both did what we wanted from them, she had 9 a few got really good homes but a couple of them were bought by idiots unknown to us at the time, that went on to be passed on, so from then on i vowed not to breed as you put so much into your dogs and puppies only to see some wasted

now i would rather go and buy a well reared puppy with a sire and dam that have done the jobs that has been asked of them

THERES NO AGE , as to when a dogs been tested, if its stood up to be counted and earnt its place time and time again thats all that matters , names, titles and bloodlines dont come into it ,while that dogs working ............ when your walking back to the car , after a nights lamping , and the dogs delivered the goods even when the chips were down , youll know wether its worth breeding from or not !!

a relitavely young dog ........ tried and tested

the only ive decided to breed my own this time is so i no what ive got as ther is alot of people saying the pups is this crossed with that then you find out off someone else what the true breeding is as ive seen this happen a few times so thats the only reason ive gone for what ive got

Nice looking dog

[Guest fence_hopper]

either that dogs to hard or its not very good at its job, why the foks it so marked up i've seen some realy hard bull crosses been doing it for 5-6 yrs not that smashed. if he's still doing it by time he's 7 or 8 you'll no if he's as good as you think. the reason i say that is my mates grey bitch is to hard she's smashed to fuk and he's had to retire her early. nice dog though best of luck and hope you have many more seasons out of him

ive got a saluki/bull/greyhound bitch, ... shes a lot bigger built than the dog pictured , and on the lamp shes as good as anything, she can kill twice as fast as him but does that mean she,s been tested ............. no !!! she,s got a good technique thats all ! ....... like i said ..... to get up and carry on and finish the job ........ thats testing .
