My cousin runs 2 bitches out of daves stuff and they do him fine ,always found dave to be helpful and a gent 3 Quote Link to post

digging-deep 518 Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Wouldn’t entertain deerhound x these days, I’ve had and worked doxhope,cookland & platt for years and all failed out in the field for the quarry we was running, I’ve seen numinous amounts of them fail throughout the years, not make the grade and the ones that did was just half decent, there’s better breeds to go to imo 1 Quote Link to post
