I was quite surprised really, as some foxhounds are massive, I thought Buck was big, but some of them males hit 30 in 110lb, big thick bone on them. Dogs are strange creatures really, Buck certs passive with people /kids dogs, and yet wreak a fox, carry back proud as punch to me lol 1 Quote Link to post

And as said before on Buck fookin scared of him, yet he switch it on, and wreak a fox or bloody cat if bumped into one when out.? Quote Link to post

But if they not bred before, they sperm get weaker, and very difficult to produce. I do know one thing though, I know I find it hard to get a temp as his as good with. People/kids and dogs. I said to my wife that when Buck gone couple years time maybe. I get me a mature dog, just as a pet , unless I drop lucky I think find it hard, he been good in the field and at home 2 Quote Link to post
jukel123 8,056 Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 I realise that mate. i got a couple here 14 and 11. When they go I'll probably get an older dog from a dog home too. Im too old for a pup. But need a dog just to get me out and about. 2 Quote Link to post
Samrog 425 Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 (edited) I seen this young dog come up for rehoming today and thought he looked a bit long in the leg and wondered wether there be some sighthound in him? I know next to nothing of the breed though so probably wrong! if I had the space I’d have him. Edited June 14, 2022 by Samrog 4 Quote Link to post
