whin 463 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 i realy think they should shut hanckcok down and people breed there own collie types for freinds and daft computer hunters with rose tinted glasses who love a good read like merle , my life with lurchers , etc gid books them braw reading for a youth ,on a more serous note plummer hanckock changed the lurcher seen but never bred many champs , im fraid but a whole lots of duds ,even old chalkwareen knew 25 odd years ago what they were about. daft chicken feeders and a school teacher wanting to breed dogs and say they were briliant between there self ,cmon guys if youse have abit of sense its not that easy to produce very good dogs without alot of work at times,its like the minshaw breed the whinshaw lol 1 Quote Link to post
lietome 138 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Get a decent track retired greyhound, with good feet, where i come from Scottish borders, lots of good working leggy Border Collies, give the Farmer a bottle of Whiskey as a stud fee, look after the brood Bitch really well, and you have a Litter, that you can take a Pup from, and the others should sell no bother, no need to go near a puppy farmer. what happens the bitch once she's reared the pups, ive always liked collie x's in the right hands the best all round workers but sensitive easily spoiled by harsh treatment Quote Link to post
mackem 26,089 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 even old chalkwareen knew 25 odd years ago what they were about. Chalkwarren himself had a couple from Hancock,what happened to them?I remember meeting Jim Tyler years ago at a game fair,he had his own airgun magazine and had been given a merle pup by plummer,loads of people have owned them,had good results with them,I wonder how many rank-and-file lurchermen down the years have worked one?Clucky from this forum had one,very,very good fox dog,took around 100 in one season but that was back in the 1990's,whats Hancocks puppy output in a year?

TBH after seeing the first one run on hares as i have always liked a lurcher that can put up a good show on hare i was never intrested in having one the lad who had this said dog however had an outstanding bitch bred in s.yorks out of a deerhound/grey back to collie/grey who on both occasions i saw it catch 3 hares funny thing about it plummer to my knowledge never mentioned it in any of his books more than likely due to the fact he was promoteing hancocks dogs at the same time giving good lurcher to lurcher bred dog the degority name bitzas.

jambay5 191 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 for me it simple if am parting with my hard earnt cash for a pup, i would need to see sire working and evidence of the dam!! a pup out of none working stock (pet dogs) should be free to a good home! thats just my opinion, ex track dogs would ok for me if they proved it had raced and i would have to see the collie rounding sheep up before i parted with my £200/250!
