As some may know my bitch broke 2 toes near a month ago which guttered me as she would be out all season as they was bad breaks.

Which left me with all my faith left in my rough tumbler lurcher. It left me sceptical as this lad is very accident prone and spends a lot of the season with injurys. partly because he is that fast and runs that hard for everything and puts his all into every run, and partly because his skin was thin and build wasn't the best.

I was goin to be very careful on the runs I chose for him due to this so I could get as much out of him as possible throughout the season.

Sadly thiS wasn't to happen as I lost him last weekend on a textbook run on a soft set field.

he snapped his front leg with the bone pretruding through the skin. I was out on my own and had no first aid kit with me. I managed to slow the bleeding with using the slip lead as a tourniquet so I chucked the poor lad on my shoulders n marched home over 3 miles.

Sadly after seeing the emergency vet and havin X-rays he had snapped 2 metacarple bones. And the best course of action was sadly to pts. I'm still guttered now as I get rather attached to my dogs as there part of family not just workers.

This now has left me without a dog to run this season at all, although I would ideally like to get a pup in and start again but with it being the start of the season i am very eager to get out. I know this is a long shot by any means but If anyone knows of a decent dog or sapling ready to go for this season please pm me with details. Daytime and lamp dogs considered. The dog will have a home for life and the very best of care. Thanks for reading.

i'm in the same position myself.lost my best one in an accident a few weeks ago.now i'm left with my little jacker but i'm waiting until the spring before i get another.[/quote

Shit position int it mate, I ain't even got a jacker to run I'd be grateful of even one of them just to run lol]

I'll listen out for you Boris ,but a pup or a sapling would be my choice in that order.

Anyone have any plans to breed soon ? Give this lad a shout
