bobwood8 1 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 I have seen so many dogs been passed from pillar to post, would you pass on a dog that you know is not worth a wank? Is it best to try find them a non working home, or PTTS if all else fails?? The market seems to be full of such dogs. i bought one of them dogs and the lad who sold it said it was 100% Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malt 379 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Emotive subject here. A very similar question was asked in the lurcher section a few days back, descended into a slagging match with lads being called all sorts of names for saying they'd end a dogs live for various reasons, and got deleted..

FightTheBan 1,147 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Depends what you class as a jacker. A lurcher bred for rabbits and retrieving shot hares that jacks on a fox doesnt deserve to be put on the scrap heap. A lurcher purposely bred (Bull x etc) for retrieving shot foxes that jacks should be pts. There is no other reason to add this blood to a lurcher than for that purpose. If i bred a rabbiting dog i would not be terribly dissapointed if it didnt do foxes...if it did, it would be a bonus. And dogs should not be sold on regardless if they are a jacker or not, good dogs are very rarely sold. FTB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 12,878 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Well said ftb Selling for profit is what's dragging the dog world down. I've sold my terrier pups before now for £50 each (5 pups) and that was only to recuperate vet's bills (£250 didn't cover it by the way ) The same bitch is pregnant now accidental mating and not one penny will be asked for them unless I end up with another huge vet bill As for selling jackers on, only a tw@t would do that without mentioning it was a jacker on whatever it jacks on. But a fox jacker pre 2004 of course might of made a wonder rabbit dog. One man's shiit another man's gold an all that. If the dog is totally useless then you should do the right thing and we all know what that is..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FightTheBan 1,147 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 (edited) "Were that ment as a joke" Hes from the 'travelling' fraternity i'm pretty sure, so chances are it wasnt a joke. The only thing he forgot to add, was that once he has abandoned the jacker he could go and lift someones pride and joy out their kennel.

Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted February 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 DIGZY, Not even an animal would abandon their own, to make such a statement speaks volumes regarding your compassion towards our loyal working companions, and I could never ever consider dumping a dog to fend for itself, if I had my way members like you would have no space on this hunting site, for clearly you are not a true hunter.

FTB I knew it was not meant as a joke then they bleat on about not tarring them all with the same brush.It does make sense to have dogs microchipped as this wat obviousley happens to stolen dogs that are not up to their standards Quote Link to post Share on other sites
