Apache... 2,588 Posted June 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 I think the best way to get any dog fit is to work there game as often as you can, you can only do so much the rest is up to them. Quote Link to post

Few shakes of a dog with the jaw power of abd would be enough to kill a coyote in seconds imo. But what do me an you know bird about coyotes lol Quote Link to post

dogmad riley 1,348 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Bull would kill it quicker than a sighthound, but the bull dog wouldnt have a chance of catching one on the run on open land like Dan and was it stuntman?? Hunt them. Would love to have ago at hunting some on the big open land of the states Quote Link to post
THE STIFFMEISTER 16,350 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 I am nowhere near qualified to speak but that last video was a bit sickening As for the drone one, I think that in this country the idea of a nice tight bull grey killing foxes with a few chops is clearly not a comparative, after all , would you expect three Track greyhounds to kill a collie with two bites after a run ?? I was a bit disheartened admittedly with the lax heart of the pack running but if that's the standard , it is what it is , I'm sure a more forthcoming pack could be resulted from springing three half x bull greys from the back of ute twenty yards away Interesting thread though, is the way of life dying out? Do you get many youngsters coming through wanting to keep stags and yote hounds? 1 Quote Link to post
Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 This was the Stitch dog that Andy Rocks gave me. I could never thank him enough for that. What a dog! Taught me what to look for in a good one. Still got the hounds pal? Get some pics up if ye have please, none a you in ye dungarees tho haha Any hounds about now Dan? Yes I'm back into the hounds. I got out for a couple years but my dad kept the blood going so now I'm back at it pretty much right where I left off. Quote Link to post
Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) Interesting thread though, is the way of life dying out? Do you get many youngsters coming through wanting to keep stags and yote hounds? Id say it is dying out sorta but its a very slow death. There are plenty of youngsters runnin dogs. My 3 are out every weekend with me and I can name prolly at least a few dozen other families like that as well. I kinda screwed up your quote cuz I deleted too much of it and then forgot to respond to part of it. The drone video is not the standard at all. Take care Edited June 7, 2017 by Dan Edwards Quote Link to post

bird 10,004 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 This is the grandson of the Stitch dog over his daughter. Gonna be big b*****ds but its all we got so we make do. well you keeping the line tight Dan, and both good proven dogs, prob the best way to go .Do you ever out x to a pure greyhound , or a deerhound , more so the greyhound to had bit more speed , or do the stag line you keep hold enough speed with every generation . Just curious thats all Dan , as over its either lurcher x lurcher , or pure running dogs used greyhound, whippet, saluki, deerhound , back working breeds collies, terriers , etc Quote Link to post
THE STIFFMEISTER 16,350 Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Your dogs all still down off stitch dan? Whats left of em yes. He made it look easy. His daughter use to til the last 2 years. She just turned 7 and the miles have caught up to her. She still looks ok on the outside for the most part but she is not ok. I only ran her a couple times this last winter just to show her to a few guys but other than that she is pretty much retired. We just bred her to a grandson of Stitch. We shall see. I had a dog the spit of that in his prime , lovely stamp the smooths Quote Link to post
Silversnake 1,099 Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Great thread! That first video with the three stags running the coyote I personally don't have any problem with, while I agree that video should not be used as an 'advertisement' sometimes quarry can be stubborn and that looked like extremely tough terrain. If I was on that hunt I would have been well and truly engaged! While the dogs don't look like ace dogs by any stretch, but not too many running dogs perform like a game dog on the dispatch, but I wish all mine would! The second video was basically an execution and a bit of a bore to me... Quote Link to post

Just curious thats all Dan , as over its either lurcher x lurcher , or pure running dogs used greyhound, whippet, saluki, deerhound , back working breeds collies, terriers , etc I don't breed that often to be honest. I haven't really used any pure greyhounds that I can think of. My dad bred a field trial greyhound to a coyote bred bitch awhile back. I'm no historian but Id say these dogs carry a lot of greyhound blood. Id never breed to a deerhound nor would I hunt one. The "good ones" Ive "heard" of fought real hard but they didn't run tough. They pulled up when they was sore or whatever. Cant have that when ya runnin coyotes. This ground is rough as hell and they gotta run tough not just fast. Quote Link to post
