[dogs-n-natives 1,182]

Im Back, got about 1 more weeks holiday then back to graft, flat out till next July!

 

No complaints with the Blue bitch, shes doing me proud, almost fit enough for the coming season ... aye my lass is gaining confidence, shes gutting bunnies now, so thats an improvement, but still has some way to go yet before I can say shes a true worker

 

Make sure my missus chats to her next time I see yeh, she`ll convert her !!! hahahaha

 

Still laughing at the shock on her face when that blue dog ran like buggery at the races lol. FFS even WHIN liked it hahaha

 

You not got any time off during the winter mate ? or do yeh prefer tae get the hunting done abroad in the sun ?

Aye, would be a boost to her training to have a bit of female guidance! Yeah, in theory I can take any days off I want lol plus off if the weather is too bad!! (so much for hunting in the sun! haha) It would be great to meet up for a day or night at some point!

Nice looking pup mate, ATB

[whippet 99 2,613]

As some may be aware, I lost a spaniel to cancer earlier, so was left without a replacement for my 10 yr old cocker, he still works hard, but now, it`s too hard, he can work to a standstill in a few hours, so I really needed to think ahead.

I do not do the pheasants these days, and have made a commitment to my new lurcher (Jake the Hancock)

So started to look about for a smallish lurcher / running dog, that would hunt up and might be a bit handy around the cover. I have spent a lot of time with Kittlerox lately and his Whippet really impressed as a marking, hunting cur, really sharp at picking them out. That coupled with the fact that my missus (who works the dogs, so get a say) really likes Bedlington crosses means that the new team member is

 

Flint

 

1/4 Bedlington 3/4 Whippet.

Dam was a lovely half x cross that the bloke lamped plenty with and the Sire was a racing Whippet

 

Both dogs from the Darlington area, wee village next to Raby castle

 

Could not find what I wanted up here, or anywhere else really, so the missus found this one for me. Took a lot on spec, so hope I wasn`t lied to but they seemed genuine blokes and kept a few obvious good dogs. The bitch was a peach, really lovely looking half cross, nice wide chest.

 

This wee fella is 8 weeks and has a good look about him. Decent size (hoping for 21" or so, fingers crossed) and is a lovely wee spirited thing. Hope the coat will break as well.

 

He will be ready next winter so I have plenty ahead of me yet, but as I have said, EVRYTHING is taking a back seat to lurcher work for the forseeable.

 

Wish me luck

 

ATB

very nice

rake, he looks a wee topper mate i'm sure he'll do well for you, must be the fashion these beddy x's, bob's brother has just bred his greyhound with a beddy, looks like the rabbit population is in for a wee tanking eh.

p.s. is the mighty one not going to be tempted with one?

the beddy xs have always been about as long as i can remember just like your collie xs just with the ban now i think tend to be going for smaller dogs i think atb Edited August 12, 2012 by nothernlite
