Older book mate,there’s is a dog in the story and the pic show my mate with 2 deer in front of him.That was caught off 2 deerhound greyhounds and the story is about this bullx bitch.And it was made out the the dog got it’s 1st everything and it was a load of shit and all lies.My mate who has the original pics wants his money back for the book as that story put him off from reading the rest of it.Basically you could tell the book was all lies. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's a big blue bull cross in it that my mate owned but had to get rid as he was getting sent down, think it's in one of his lurcher work books. He asked one of the lads who was flat out with it to star in one of his books, he rightly tuned him down IMO. Don't understand why you would want that attention tbh, each to their own I guess. Still, they make good reading and if he's done bits fair play. Edited November 6, 2021 by Greb147 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The pic I’m on about is about this dog called Jess,my mates brother in law got it off him and he made it out about how he got it’s 1st everything with it and the dog was a pile of shit,that’s why my mate gave him it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WILF 46,786 Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Well I was at one of the days in a chapter of “Dogs & Deer” and I can tell you it’s word for word. Likewise quiet a few pals, very good lads, did guest chapters in various books and they 100% wasn’t bullshit. The bloke puts in a lot of miles and is a very single minded type of bloke about whatever he is focusing on. He definitely isn’t some kind of super hunter and he wouldn’t pretend he is. I always found him a very decent bloke and he used to send me a free book every time one came out, I always insisted on paying but he wouldn’t hear of it. Haven’t spoken to him in years but I can only speak as I found and he is a decent bloke. He definitely isn’t bullshitting anyone, he may edit stuff to make a better book I’m sure but he is a mentalist when he gets a bee in his bonnet about a subject and will spend hours, weeks, months devoted to it. 16 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it’s one of them that dog lads can creep round worrying about “the antis” or they can just say f**k it mate, I want to go out and see my dog leather gear. Antis are always going to be antis, “ethical” dog work won’t convince them otherwise…..f**k em, I love seeing some great big savage of a dog break stuff into tatters and long may there be lads willing to go out and just get stuff killed 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
