jim. 28 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) Hi everyone, Im after getting some good books on conditioning and getting lurchers fit for work and racing etc. I know there is the running dog maintenence one is it? But wondered what other good books are out there. My pups are only 6 months old so its strictly just for bedtime reading for the next 12 months or so! But its my first running dog so It can't help to read up properly. Anyway I have stuck a few pictures of the pups up. There all 6 months old and all out the same litter which my uncle bred. The first two pictures are both dogs and the pups my girlfriend and I chose to keep. The last picture is a bitch which unfortunately I found out was being sold on so me being me and knowing my mother would gladly accept another sofa dog I dropped the sob story and within 48 hours it was in her home haha. She wasn't best pleased with me for telling her but at least its get somewhere were its going to get spoilt! Shame it won't get worked but hey ho. Thanks for reading and any advice and opinions is always welcome ATB Jim Edited November 25, 2013 by jim. 3 Quote Link to post

BORDERSCOT 3,816 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 So, you have three out of the same litter.....fair play to you.....that'd be my worst nightmare.... Big enough job having the one.... Quote Link to post
jim. 28 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Tell me about it! Technically I have two! It's a funny old story. I was just about to finish university and move back into my parents house, so I got a pup out the litter my uncle bred. Then my girlfriends father had just lost his beardie so you guess it he had one! Then life threw me a curve ball and I moved in with my girlfriend so all of a sudden I have two pups at my feet, both dogs!! And after my mum was adamant she didn't even want me to have a pup, she has through fate ended up with a pup from the same litter! So I think my mums brother, my uncle has a lot to answer for haha!
