I'd have the work for it too as my collie cross is getting on a bit now. Edited July 7, 2018 by Maximus Ferret 4 Quote Link to post

keepitcovert 842 Posted July 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) Im 66 and have two dogs i mooch with every day ones 12 the others 10 both were decent in their prime, im reasonably fit, but cant see myself without a dog, got an arrangement with a mate 30 years younger than me who will take my next dog, if i pop my clogs. But if i do get another i would go for a smaller lurcher that would suit my purpose eg ferreting the odd night on the lamp, no double figure nights that would suit me.

Bosun11 537 Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Yup, its always a sad sight for me, a majestic running dog being walked by some daft doo gooder, wearing a fecking harness and a muzzel (because its a hunting dog!) and the poor cnut is being walked down country lanes (because its a hunting dog!!) Without ever getting the chance to 'go'..... And do you know who's fault that is... Ours!! For breeding far too much shite... Sickens me.... Quote Link to post
