Suzy Ross 236 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Minshaw bred dogs get mentioned on here on a weekly basis. Most recently someone matching his. But what I want to know, is their any real Minshaw dogs about these days? I know this can be a powder keg subject so please, sensible replies only Quote Link to post

Dead Eyes 681 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 If there are any 'pure' minshaws left then I for one would want all of them You see, its such a small gene pool from a single breeder that the b*****d things would be so inbred by now theyd have somewhere around 8 legs and two heads, with just one body to feed You could run them doubled up, without even meaning to...

johnny boy68 11,726 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 I don't think theres any "Minshaws" per se about these days, a few lads kept lines going with the blood in(Bulpa, Chester etc) but they weren't "full" Minshaw if you get what I'm saying. Minshaw is just a moniker used these days, some for the right reasons and others for the wrong ones. 1 Quote Link to post

How you doing pal, glad you got your dog back I'm good mate, could do with a bit more work for this Minshaw I got here but otherwise everythings fine.

Suzy Ross 236 Posted November 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 aye Johnny, a bit of a worry when they bugger off..... Even more so on hot land and the last you saw it was on the arse of a deer f***ing cold shiver there thinking back to that day..... The anxiety was heightened by the constand barking of a farm collie..... f***ing emotional I can tell yea Quote Link to post
