its a shame your goin to miss the last one mate glen was hoping youd wear the chaps for the last one!!he was goin to wear his fancy shoes for it. that was a good final lol and it really was horses for courses lol.but if you ever get sick of the feed bill send him up to mourne as hes cracker. tuc thats a beauty of a pup mate it was spyed from the far end of the field as a winner!. vm [bANNED TEXT] goin to miss the special stew!!

I knew what he was at ,he wore them to get an advantage at the starting line.His heels were behind the line and his toes were half way up the track along with his dog. He is the only man ever to be barred from Duffy's circus for stealing the clowns shoes. They were that big and pointy I thought at first he had put his feet in two canoes or was just back from a water skiing trip at Antrim Forum. Think I will stick to the chaps Glen, they don't look as bad even with my saggy arse in them :D:D :D
thats lovely I try to make an effort and tidy myself up a bit and all I get is a load of abuse from a couple of cowboys! Now that I think about it one did have a horse with him! And the other one has a cheek talking about anyones dress sense with what he was wearing his legs looked that bad in shorts I saw someone trying to put a lead on him when they called for the veteran whippet class

Hey fella, are you and your wee buck going hunting with me Ricky an Dazzam this Saturday or are you showing your dogs (and shoes )somewhere? you should actually try hunting ,its good, you might like it :D:D .AND you can always stand tall beside me in the working whippet class at the next show. Over the year at various venues ive seen some people enter their dogs in that class that need to take a :icon_redface::icon_redface: :icon_redface:. Id love to see a few of them tackle a five bar gate never mind a large hill or moor. :snack::rofl:

That Taxidermist did some job of that lurcher of yours but how did you get it to balance on top of that gate though? Or was that a camera trick? it looks suspiciously like the 6 inch grill from my barbecue in the distance instead of a real gate. All joking aside mate its wonderful just what you can do in that photoshop now ,fair play. Wish I had of learned computers a bit better but I was always away out with the dogs and ferrets lol. Hope you can make Saturday should be a good day ,the farmer has my balls broke to thin them out .

The gloves are off! you held this one back to size up the competition that's sneeky :D That's a nice wee secret weapon alright :thumbs: , but while youll be teaching yours to look pretty and to walk over the winter ,mine will be taught to look pretty and run :toast::D:D :D "wheres my grow bags Nicky"? :D:D On a serious note that's a nice pup I cant wait to see how all the baby pups develop over the winter. ill have to bring my A game in Barneys development as the competition will be fierce next season with so many nice pups on the go. Plus my own wee blue whippet bitch has just been mated to Horsey head so a few of my mates have already booked pups and will be taking some of those pups up next season to the club .Maybe coax Darren into taking one too,what you say mate???

      A TRIBUTE TO THE LATE JIMMY SCOTT, A TOP DOGGIE MAN IN OUR COUNTRY SPORTS FRATERNITY, WHO LEFT THIS WORLD ON Christmas Day.   I Am Free Do not grieve for me now my friends and family, I am free. I am following the path God Laid for me. I took his hand when I heard him call, I turned my back and left it all.   I could not stay another day to show, to live , to hunt, to fish or play. I found my peace at close of day. Be not burdened with this time of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief. Do not lengthen it now with undue grief.   Lift up your hearts my friends and share with me. God wanted me now, He set me free.   From all in Country Sports Margaret Mc Stay

      The Combined Clubs Dog Show and Northern Ireland Champion of Champions Saturday 7thSeptember 24
      Laurencetown is famous for its green fields, ancient buildings, walled gardens and extensive lawns stretching down to the River Bann. But as well as these famous landmarks, Laurencetown can add another string to its bow by adding the annual Combined Clubs Dog Show and Northern Ireland Champion of Champions to its attractions and venue.    
      Saturday was one of the warmest days of the year with the sun shinning down continuously. I got burned alive but all well worth it. Our Country Sportsmen, women and children came out to this now annual dog show to enjoy the last days of the summer sunshine. 
      Our summer Dog shows have become canine excursions from all parts of the country North and South of the Border. Saturday was no exception with a good turnout of Terriers, Lurchers, Whippets and Strong dogs.
      And wait for it, the big surprise of the day and what a pleasant surprise that was. The McGrath Racing Club arrived unexpectedly for a family day out to support the show. And guess what they acted on the spot with an impromptu few races to the joy of many of the racing fraternity at the show.
      The childrens handling class was first on the list and judged by Marian Cree. What a turnout of children in the ring on Saturday. I can still see the smile on Clodagh Gentle face on winning 1st with her   Whippet Clive. These young boys and girls are our sportsmen and women of tomorrow. I have no doubt in my mind that these little people will carry on the sport after our day. Well done Marian and congratulations to all.
