skycat 6,174 Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 Never saw any bred this way in the Forley or any oyther comp Funny that.......have you ever considered that there are some people who would never go in for those sort of competitions? The just work their dogs alone or with a couple of friends. It makes me laugh that so many people these days think that unnless a dog has won a competition it's no good> believe me, there are dogs out there today who could hold their own and then some with any of these competition dogs.

Lurchandhistribe 0 Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Have two mike kidd dogs with lines back to mike docwra. The bitch comes beating, ferreting and has odd trip out on lamp. Never had chance to run her on hare pre ban but reckon she probably lacks the stamina to run 3 in a day, however she has the attitude and would give it 100%. Aint got a pic of her working but have of her racing def the best dog I have had and will be having another in future. Quote Link to post
