Keeps 403 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Yes, as you say, I don't think shes related to these. Do you know what the black dog owned by Pie was called Bill? Been right through every drawer for the record book for that year I travelled with big Pie..September 1995, the dog he had then, a black dog, was called Rum....hope this helps..Im sure that one of the dogs he had, could be this one, was bred off Ardkinglas Mick.. Thanks for this Bill, very helpful indeed. all this history is great guys and fascinating to find out about her ancestors, ive got lots of pics from kev but no scanner maybe he could help show them again, any joy on more about pies black dog romany ? I have a few photos that I've accumulated, if no-one has any objections I'll find them and post them, but you've probably already seen them birddog. Not off the top of my head, but he was a decent runner, I travelled more with Big Pies mate Ginger Alderton.. Keeps..does this bitch go back to Pauls first cross? Page from my records book of a month when I went out with Pies dog.. This makes interesting reading Bill, looks like Rum was not a bad dog at all... No the bitch Birddog posted which started the thread off doesnt go back to Paul's first cross, its Nuala that is out of Pauls first x Bracken, to Stan's sister Judy. I was sure Gin was out of Storm, could be wrong, its a while ago, sure Storm cam from Minshaw stuff, agai, I could be wrong..I tried to buy that Gin bitch years ago, if Kev can see Scotchy, he will remember what I offered for her....Jan seems to have collated quite a bit of useful info on the lines... Stop press...no, Gin was out of the assasin, thats why I wanted her..I think Some of the information I originally collected was contradictory, but more recently I found out, through Kev that Gin was out of Thorn and Belle. Thorn was out of a deer x called Blue and a collie x from Northumberland. Belle is also out of Thorn. Bill, I too was told of a Minshaw connection through Storm from the lads I got Nuala from. Will have a look for those photos now.. Quote Link to post
Romany 1,065 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Never saw it on matie..Dont think it was related, not sure....talked to a few lads who did see it on, and they said it was the most over rated dog ever..Best male lurcher imo at that time apart from the assassin, that I saw on, was Billy Mercels Paddy 1 Quote Link to post
TAXI DRIVER 549 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Lovely animals.Out of interest and allowing for a relatively injury free life,what age do these deerhound crosses work to?Anyone had one that worked to an old age? Quote Link to post

Will have a look for those photos now.. Yeah thats right on Thorns breeding, the collie cross was Watsons a lad whose parents owned the papershop in the top end of Bedington, My Bes came from the same Blue dog, but a diifferent dam, 4 first cross deerhounds were brought up to our area from the same litter from a guy in Burnley..and a lot of good stuff came from these dogs.. Im straining to remember the bitch called Belle.. Quote Link to post
