just wondering i bought a pup out of this litter 15mths now, didnt have a choice as it was supposed to be going to ireland, a blue merle dog anyway had him out with me ferreting from 4mths, his first catch at 5mth was a wood pidgeon which had been winged not looked back since realy, he's had 5 pheasant 2 which he's took out of the air, caught loads of bolters, never given a false mark he's great to watch trailing a rabbit, will work ditches and cover and a pleasure to have round a set,very obediant and easy to train but does'nt like strangers, he's about 24" and roughly 55 lb i know some went to members of here just wondered how there's have turned out

cheers albert

What is in the breeding sounds like some collie?

[albert64 1,882]

yes mate collie obviously in his line with him being merle, his mother is a red merle but basically lurcher to lurcher his sire was a dog called dougy, i'm sure dave sleight's boy blue is in his breeding aswell already performing like a dog with more seasons under his belt

dont no about him being a promiser because he's never promised me anything and i take people as i find them not what others tell me there like, and he's never said his dog does'nt yap a bit he published it for all to read in edrd does'nt make it a bad dog, infact in cover you no your dogs on and as for saying there average i take it you've seen it work because mine has never embarressed me but he's embarressed others thats why i put the post up to see how the others have turned out not peoples oppinions on the man or his dogs, perhaps the lad you know has let his dog get away with being boisterous you didnt say how it works?

it might stop as it gets a bit older and gets more work under its collar i take it it can catch its own rabbit, cos it might be excitment not frustration a lot of young dogs start this if there worked cover alot a mate of mine has one that screams like f*ck for its first one or two runs then silent after that and can kill anything that its put on dont think it matters if your on permission what size did your mares dog make

i no the man wel enough to call afreind , and ye his dogs sqeeuk a bit but he has hunted with his hounds since puppy and thats the type of dog work he does as well as other , tell me if you have collie type terrier type would yours sqeek getting brought up woth small hounds my saluks wouldnt type of dopg they are and my saluk collie wouldnt but had some when hunting hard on a big fat roe or hare in cover when it was legal give the odd bark then minute it gets in opening stops dead the odd bark ,he was a very good dog but to much woodland and frustraition but minute he got in the open he was silent , sawall sorts of dogs giving asqeel in heavy cover especaily terrier cross whippets bw

[lurchers 2,859]

ya right mate the terrier cross whippets or terrier cross greyhounds are known for it.chipper is a good lad and he will tell ya what his dogs have done and what they havnt done which is genuine in my eyes.he is doing well with his little hound pack to good on the lad.i think the pups out of nell have turned out a bit head strong than what he expected as all his other pups he had bred were a bit more quicker a learning i think than these ones.but the people i have spoke to who got 1 out this litter all stid they are abit strong headed thn they normaly are.

[albert64 1,882]

not found mine to be any more boisterous than any other pup infact can say he's been a pleasure to train as he's eager to please, but you have to look at whats in the blood, gwp they can be headstrong and hard to hold back its up to the owner to get on top of his dog, mine appears to have thrown to the collie you never know it might go tits up at some stage then its down to me to get him over that

Merlin with his Mother Nell watch over a set of holes.

Lurchers, I dont know where your coming from because most of what you said isnt right, yes its true that Merlin gives the odd yap while on a some rabbits. But you have never seen my dogs work so how can you coment on how good or bad they are. As far as me being a good promiser goes, well I think your memory is failing you or there has been a mis-understanding! I PMd you about six months ago with my phone number so that you could call me when your son was able to come for a days rabbiting with me!! The offer still stands, you and your Son can come and see for yourself weather my dogs are any good at their work! Your wrong when you said that other Lurchers which I have bred have been easier to trian than this litter we are on about. Well how can they be when this is the only litter of Lurchers I have ever bred in my life. How do you know if Merlin is come on well or not, its six months since I sent you that PM!! Come and see my dogs for your self Lurchers, you and your Son are both welcome for a look out, I'm sure you both will have a good day.

I am happy with Merlin, he is and always has been a pleasure to work with. He is very steady and laid back, a very good hunter and marker. He has been known to mark some burries like ther was a bunny just under his nose! He takes a lot of game out of their seats but I have stopped him bringing Pheasants to me, some keepers dont like it! Merlin has retrieved a couple of shot hares, he hasnt seen many more than that. He didnt do to bad retrieving a shot fox, he is also doing very well at tracking wounded Roe. He as just started on the lamp and been out a couple of times. What more can I say about the young dog, if we can forgive him having the odd yip I think he is coming on very well!! Merlin is the only Lurcher I have owned that gives mouth. Some Pointer Xs can yip, plus when he is with my Hounds he thinks he is one. Regards Warren

No need to justify your dogs to anyone, Chipper....... If the guy has not seen them work; how can he comment on them ?

 

Cheers.
