Rebel 833 Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 I had the pleasure of hunting with Pat for a few seasons when I was a young lad. I have many happy memories of those days. He's line of wheaten were as fine an animal that you would see, big strong dogs and bitches, that were made for the job. One was as impresive as the other. As Jigsaw said there's mot many of his kind left, he kept and bred he's wheatens for one reason only. May he rest in peace. 13 Quote Link to post
Lenmcharristar 9,734 Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Never knew or heard of him, but by the sounds of it he was crucial in the wheatens and keeping them going, fair play 2 Quote Link to post

I'm not saying whoever your talking about isn't a great dog man..but a pretty big bold statement to make if I'm honest... Ireland has many a great dog man...but... also depends who's telling you their great...been out with quite a few who were well known in the trial days and quite a few from books... and wasn't very impressed.
