Guest RAB.MCKAY Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Men with a genuine love of their hounds and chosen Quarry. Men who know how to condition their charge to perfection. Men with Respect for their Hounds, Their Quarry and the Countryside. Men who know when to say enough is enough. After all they are flesh and Blood and not Machines. agree Quote Link to post
danw 1,748 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Does a good dogman have to hunt I would think that their are plenty of good "dogmen" who work their charges for different reasons be it guard dogs/sheepdogs etc? Quote Link to post

hullhunter 219 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 someone who works there dogs at every given opportunity (not everyone can get out 5/6 nights/days a week) someone who respects the land they work and also manage the land they hunt(not hammer it to bits of run it out of season) someone who runs there dogs to the dog limit and not there own. someone who who treats the dog as a dog not a tool someone who spends time in bringing a dog on in all aspects of work and recognising the dogs limitations. someone who dose it because they love to seen a dog work (not because its illegal or they love killing things or they can make a few bob) someone who who breads there dog because they need to not because they need some cash. someone who who can handle any situation when the sh*t hits the fan. and most of all someone who is willing to share there knowledge with the right people other wise what chance dose the dog world have with out the proper dog men/women leading the way. 2 Quote Link to post

Mick C. 229 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 It,s really difficult to define ,Personally I don,t think it,s about how good thier dogs are ,or even how much tackle they get , I v met a couple of ,what I consider to be good dog men , over the years and the thing they had in common , was a presence , an aura , call it what you want ,but they had an affinity with thier dogs , a bond , a partnership , and I don,t mean just a well trained dog , but something stronger , as I said it,s really difficult to define , but there is a differance between , a man who likes his dogs and a good dog man . Bang on Give me goose pimples that statement. The dog knows automatically when that person is present. Other dogs also take to these people in no time. It must be a gift Quote Link to post

STUNTMAN 552 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 What I ment to say is DOGS not dog ,in the sence of keeping a line / strain, breed at a high level. But after reading what you wrote I dont agree, Cully,Teddy myself off the top of my head have all kept multiple breeds well over the 1-2 year mark at a high level. Well then like you always say, go do it on the greyhound or race horse track there Mr. High Level. And dont start this shit about it being two different things cuz you know it aint. High level is high level no matter what game you are playing. You cannot consider young, dumb and lucky or old and washed up "high level". Cant wait til the day somebody shows me high level for more than two years with any dog of any breed. Well let me put it to you this way Captain Fat Ass from Dywight it isnt two differnt things. I'll show you 1000s of GHs that ran over the years on the top track at a B, BB, A, AA in USA. {leave horse out this about dogs}And you dont think Cully and Teddy who were right off the top of my head dont have dogs at 3 plus years that preform at a high level??? your a crazy sour mutha flunker, must be friday. Another thing who you calling"dumb,lucky or old and washed up" the 3 of us will fly to Chicago and pull you apart like a pack of wild dogs on a kitten, you warm beer soaked peice of wonder bread.Yeah and another thing stop with this "show me" "show me" chit pussy why dont you show me somthing like a dog you bred off your yard thats worth feeding fec face cuzt. Im the best! Quote Link to post
STUNTMAN 552 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) What about Scratch? feck how old was he when you gave him to me?
