MINSHAW .....


Recommended Posts

Bosun I was just reading the story about your dog Scooby and how you came to get him and just referring back to his sire the black dog that you said was a ringer for my dog Jack. When you said he would take a week to recover from his exertions that Jack wouldn't be quite that bad but two hard nights in a row and he needed 3/4 days to fully get over it? Swift seems a little the same? Some of my other dogs would go nigh on every night and run a heap of stuff and come out the kennel on coil springs the following day raring to go again! No smoke without fire mate so perhaps your dog does carry a wee drop of the old MINSHAW blood? Jeremy Kyle and a DNA test required lol...ATB Andy

If she ran until she was 10 years old like Bulpa did and carried on killing like she did she wouldn't of been far behind old bully koopa haha ;) not bad for a useless Minshaw bitch :laugh: obviously wouldnt of had as many deer and so on. Thats where alot of Bulpas nights insisted on. Plus you had Jess and Patch and Slav had Kes, Lad etc.
