hendo 1 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 I've noticed a few adverts for 'Pups for sale' and they've advertised as 'Rytex free', i understand that everyone is entitled to their reasoning, and their is plenty of people green with envy when it comes to certain lines/breeders. I was wanting to know ( apart from the ' i dont like him/her ' route ) why they would opt for a ' Rytex free line of breeding any thoughts would be appreciated. Baz Quote Link to post

Baz Often wondered why myself, got Rytex in both of mine and can't fault them. Like you say it must be something personel. Andy Quote Link to post

Baz i think a little bit of jealousy some people say they are to white in colour and a bit hot to handle !but like always in this country if you are good at something every one likes to have a pop at you Quote Link to post
KIPO 2 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 YES MY BITCH IS RYTEX WORKS NON STOP AND YES SHE IS HARD TO CONTROL BUT ONLY HER SPEED THAT WHY THEY GET BAD PRESS BUT WOULD NOT SWAP MY BITCH . Quote Link to post
rickyspringer 15 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 its preference, a lot of old men i know which are into there spaniels will not touch anything with rytex... I think alot of it boils sown to jealousy, because no1 can doubt what Ian has done, but people don't like all the white, sensitivity, speed and so on. Its preferences isn't it but I would love to know the sole reason. Its funny also as 8 out of 10 pedigrees these days will feature Rytex in there. Its difficult to avoid it, so maybe breeders with pedigrees without rytex in them are using this as a unique way of selling, I know Newflame use that as a major selling point.

mixxymo 0 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Yes I have seen a few adds now with "rytex free" in them recently, just want to pick up on something rickyspringer mentioned, do you find them more sensitive than a springer of different breeding I have seen a few springers now from rytex breeding and they were VERY sensitive, just wondered if it was in the lines somewhere, also when they get mentioned to be "too hot" what would people say was "too hot" Thanks Yvonne Quote Link to post

As in 'Too hot to handle' ive never come across a springer that has been described as this, i think its down to the handler, sure, its not too be taken for granted that theyre a walk in the park, but with a bit of knowledge/or help they are far from hard to train.

activeviii 8 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 sorry, im gunna ask this, i think others will be thinking the same thing.......... .......... Whet the devil it RYTEX Phil Quote Link to post
rickyspringer 15 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Rytex is an affix of a kennel which have had alot of success in the trialling world, Iain the breeder has made so many ftch's. Hope that has cleared it up for you Quote Link to post
SNAP SHOT 194 Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I personally think its down to the way Any line is trained... and the time taken, my mate has had springers most of his life, and the two best dogs he had where from the rytex line, these dogs could be worked by anyone on the whistle, Sometimes my mate would be a little hard on the dogs letting them away with little if they ranged too far...!!! But when i took them out myself, i could keep them in range 95% of the time, they were totally awesome in heavy cover like we have here, And you had to slow them up as they would simply cut themselves up in the heavy cover.. time spent training and bonding = sucess out in the field.

rickyspringer 15 Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 snap I like that alot " time spent out training and bonding = success in the field" never a truer word spoken put the graft in and have a great bond your dog will do anything for you, well in the case of my bitch she will doe anything for herself Quote Link to post

I've seen a great springer ruined by an owner cliping the dog for not retrieving quickly enough, And the dog got that nervous that it simply wouldn't take the downed bird to the owner..!!! And owners working the dogs too hard over rough ground, and working them till they tire and cannot hunt, only to take it out on the dog...!!! These are the men you will see at least every year or two changing dogs or breeds, As they simply cannot get the best from ANY dog... ATB. Snap. Quote Link to post
gold medal 2 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 i thought the reason for the "rytex free" thing was more that there was so many of them appearing on the same pedigree the breeding was starting to get a bit close Quote Link to post
