As good as rescuing....

The criteria of rescue centres can be so off the mark. Many years ago we looked at rehoming one, but failed the home visit. The reason being, we didn’t have an enclosed garden, which the tick sheet required.....

we lived on a farm with a 2 acre paddock so could hardly have a 6 foot fence round it

A lad I used to knock about with had was registered as a “dog walker “ for a local refuge...he only walked lurchers and the staff loved him as sometimes those dogs slept very very well when they were brought back

 

well they would after getting fired at as many hares we could find off the back of the van

In a way you can't really blame the rescue places.Over here the pounds are overflowing with unwanted dogs bred for pig hunting.Too many messers in the hunting game now,in a perfect World only dedicated dog men would work dogs and breed the odd litter for themselves and other hunters.It's also sad that the rescue places don't look at each case and place purpose bred dogs in good working homes where they will live the full lives they need, not what they think they need.

Smart looking pups. How is she bred? There’s no way you are walking away without one if the kids are with you

Really like this cross mate. Hard to find these days. Was it deer grey to collie grey or both parents got a bit of everything in? Keep us updated with her. Be great to see how she turns out
