I Think a a good dog is what you make it you will only get out what you put in but i recentley purchased a pup of hancock but had to take it back as it was deff.

when i took the dog back i explained that the problem was the dog had no ear canal opening wich i said i would show himwich he replied (its no good me looking i wouldnt have a clue what ime looking at) ime no animal expert but i know what adogs feckin ear looks like.

His ad says specilist breader.

You make up your own mind.

my opinion is get a dog from proven parents

 

so many bad things are said about that bloke and the lack of socialisation and cleanliness of his yard, yet people still go buy pups from him, it reminds me of a beaten woman who just keeps going back

[Scallywag 78]

Apparently some of his pups have had hip problems lately too. I know some people on here have had good dogs from him but you do hear a lot of negative stuff.

Ive had one of him in 2004 hes just a mass breeder theres no way any one can work all them dogs he has many greyhound bitchs and a lot of colliexgreyhound studs my advice go to some one who works there dogs

[Merlin Hunter 0]

I've heard about the hip problems too

 

Can't understand the guy- why mark the dogs as his with a tattoo- then just mass breed

and not give a s***t when they end up in the pound as pups? :wallbash:

they are a working strain of dog tho regardless of wether the parents do and any lurcher in the right hands will do its job end off the day a staffy x collie can catch rabbits niether were bread for the job.their are some bad points with some of hancock dogs but any mass breader would have a few no breed can be bread to perfection on mass all the time
