A Very good thread, about the pup, I think she is in top nick, dont forget she has a trace of saluki , and pointer blood in the genes, those two do not carry alot flesh over there Frame, Again for myself I believe the lad is on top of his animal husbandry, again Well done to the lad to his ability to train the Mink to work and to domesticate its working manner, again well done,

[tyne 25]

some on here cant train a hamster to go round a wheel , let a lone a dog or semi wild animal a mink ., there fechers camering baby rabbits getting trapped for people to watch , , were young minkenry has the accses to hunt a bear lion lynx deer,, and youve got people on here saying his dogs to skinny ,

 

its pefect for a runing dog pup its not some short legged heavy collie or terrier its arangy lean running dog , hees an original a chip of the old block ,not some computer hunter or jotter monkey

What the fukc has training a mink got to do with the weight of a lurcher pup ... There are guys that train Tigers to jump through hoops of fire does that mean they know what weight a lurcher pup should be ........

[tyne 25]

what weight ,a good stock man can look at his pup dog and tell his pups perfect , if a guy can train a semi wild mink falcon a dogs childs play , any way its about minkenrys dogs ,

Cadet lol you wouldn't have lasted 2 seconds in the army with that know all know fukc all big mouth attitude of yours whin ... You are only a couple of years older than me sweet cheeks ... And if you were ever in Baghdad you would have been crawling up your own arse crying for your mammy ......

Im not a fan of socks or skycat tbh but what you wrote whin is just your normal typical drivel! They have done nothing but given the lad good advice. Would you allow a pup to graze allday on 'kibble'?

What exactly is her diet made up of at the moment .....

 

I am feeding mostly muskrat, with an occasional meal of beef, and a few junks of chicken fat or skin added every now and then. I feed the whole muskrat, meat, bone, liver, kidneys, etc. minus the pelt, stomach, and intestines. Muskrat meat is a rich red meat that has a good amount of fat, and lots of protein. Muskrats are a clean and mostly vegetarian, much more like a rabbit than an actual rat. I freeze it for over a month to kill of any potential parasites, just to be safe. This is the nutritional content of raw muskrat meat...

An awful lot of work there. lol.

 

Minkenery, I like the looks of your pup and her parents expecially the male. I think in my very limited Lurcher experience that her interest in scent may fade. It's mostly thick here in Michigan and scent is important. I was able to run mine with a gun dog that was very interested in catching raccoons, possums and ground hogs. The Lurcher learned from watching that this was the way to catch these things. The weird part is it never seems to pick up on cotton tail scent only sights them. But if you have a scent orientated dog like a cur or gun dog this might be a good way to orientate her to hunting things up by scent. Take that for what it's worth.

 

Good luck with her and have fun.

 

p.s. Socks hates Americans..... but some would argue he knows a thing or two.
