Price Of Handcok's Pups Fair Or Over Priced For What They Are

[Maximus Ferret 2,063]

 

 

The stuff he breeds now are nowhere near the quality of his stock in the 80's and 90's, he now runs a puppy farm bred from untested stock and any old greyhound bitch, my lad has had 2 in 3 yrs and both are dead now,they're found wanting these days when put under pressure,my mate also lost one with a brain tumor,buy a lurcher from hard worked stock not something full of second rate genes, WM

Never thought I'd hear Mr Plummer slagging off Hancock.

I don't think this is who you think it is..!! Brian Plummer your thinking aren't you??

 

Are you serious? You're saying it's not him then?

if it was me wanting a lurcher pup for working I would not chose a puppy farmer in it for the money it would be someone who isn't arsed about money who is just in it for the love of working his dogs they are the ones what make good strains of lurcher good working parents background not some ex track dog giving away to Hancock that didn't make anything good put over a collie cross that just sees a walk on a lead that's all Hancock is now pups that barley have any human contact until they are bought scared shitless of anybody been there and seen it its not right in my mind there living off there reputation from 20 year ago

no c**t in there write mind if there serous about working dogs would pick a hanckock , there better dogs bred in mens back yards ,for rabbiting grafting but if you want a pet a dog to cacth the odd rabbit ,forget anything much more strenous theyll do a job , youlle get the odd good one but i dont like the odds , breed hundreds throw a few good ones fech that , gave beter dogs away than he has had sittinginj his kennels ,

 

got one beardie cross of him 19 90 , was a decent bitch for rabbits fox but not pacy enough for the land i hunted daily , but great for dales scottish hill land , good bitch, in her time but saw plenty that were not worth a carrot ,physically not write for an allround lurcher ,obeident yes i trained her up to a high standard ,but would i have another not lkely

Seen a few good and bad, lads this way used to keep it quiet if they had one so they never got crabbed went out with a bitch about eight years ago 3/4 x done the lot fast and tuff, RHD& teeth lad never knew what it was till checked ears then he'd already tried it atb Flacko

My mate who I go lamping with as a very good bitch off hancock not saying there not good dogs there's good an bad in every litter iam saying the price tag thats attached is way to high for what they are again just my opinion

[Flacko 1,742]

They a business mate, must turn a few pups out each year & must be running in profit to keep going not my choice or yours by the sound of it suppose if they were to cheap loads would be buying them & getting rid at first rough patch. Atb Flacko

Boooooring Luke ferret you have posted 3times without a reply moaning about Hancock lurchers, there are lads out there with dogs that do just as good as the best dogs you know.....you clearly have an issue with Hancock why not take it up with him....as for his dogs as said already there a niche in the market for lads who don't have years of working bred collies lines too go too when they want too go hunting, as for fly ball try fallow, roe, fox regular in fact 8 year old still does them and more bunnies you can shake a stick at....seen one do 12 rabbits 3roe 2charlie single handed numbers like that are good down here and similar no's was regular from that dog..some lads are very proud of there dogs of course you got kicked off the site it's for ppl who love there dogs, every time somone puts up a post about them your advertising them for him and I'm sure mr Hancock will be very gateful....wasn't going too get roped in but I seen these posts time and time again booooring now......some lads are lucky enough too have family and friends in the dog world who they can get there working strain collie x lines from, if they were that bad he would be shut down and he wouldn't have a business at all, people want different things one mans trash is another mans treasure.....Atb billy

Agree with you there mate. If you don't like him or what he does so be it, who cares write about something interesting.?

Seen a few mediocre,a couple of average,and one that was something else entirely,guy who used to be on here,Chris,his dog Tarn took over 100 fox in a season single handed,and other stuff,very focused dog.

Tomo ............same here mate , I saw one that if a hare got up too far away would just look at you and stand still , that was a 3/4 collie ..........to be fair , I had a mate with a 1/4 collie that did everything , daytime hares , fox , etc , but this was a dog bred mid 90s , don't think they are the same now . ..............Hope you are well mate , have a good Xmas .
