Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 IMHO I would never buy a working dog without trail, to much crap been passed around from tom to jack and the only one to suffer is the dog. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiny 7 1,694 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I have brought a few dogs in the past without a trail so good some so not, Too me if i was buying a dog dont matter if it was for £50 or £500 i would ask too see it run, And what i mean by that is i wouldnt expect too be takeing out and the dog kill 50 rabbits but a handful of runs, Just too see how it worked the beam, If it fetchs back too hand, and maybe see a gate or two jumped, I dont think its alot too ask really when you arrange too meet too pick the dog ask too pick it up at night and a quick hour for a spin with the dog, What decent fellah would have a problem with that?

Totaly agree, what always surprises me is the amount of people who are always trying to jump the gun with dogs. Time passes whether you have a pup or not, so why do people always try and get a working dog rather than a well bred pup ??? I would also say that this swings both ways, if you were trying to find a good working home for a dog that you've got, would you just turn it over to some numpty to go out and wreck.
