snoopdog 1,256 Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 no giro hes never covered any bitches.i been ask a good few times over the years and always said no hes not up for stud...but if anyone wants to use him .and they can get 4 people on here to vouch for there bitch and are breeding for themsevles and give me there word they wont sell the pups for more then £100 then they can have a free line. i would like to see some pups out of him now,. i think his best attribute was running hares daytime on small land fields with cover fences ect .he really did excell in that.and i would go as far as to say hes the best dog i have ever seen at that, a big statment i know ...but hell he could find a hare and run it down. 10 Quote Link to post

skycat 6,174 Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Starlight was without doubt my best all rounder: even went ferreting a couple of times, but not really her scene: too much waiting around just for a bunny to pop out into a net Coursed every week when she was young, regularly catching 3s and sometimes more. Foxes she loved, lamping: brilliant, and general all round hunter: superb round cover: when she heard a gun go off she was up and running to where she'd heard the shot knowing that a fox was there: could be a tad embarrassing though as she usually scented the fox before it exited cover and got there before a shot could be fired. RIP grand old bitch. 5 Quote Link to post

skycat 6,174 Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 All sorts! Grandmother was my first cross Deer/Grey, put to a small lurcher from Merlin/Eve lines, then back to another coursing dog, breeding unknown. She came from a very mixed litter indeed: had a brother who was 29": amazing dog he was, sadly killed at 2 years old. No Collie as far as I know, but there was all sorts in the old coursing lines wasn't there. 1 Quote Link to post
