Guest oldskool Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 i dont know about "only bad owners and no bad dogs" part because i think you need a good foundation to start but i read alot more positive things bout hancocks than i do negative Quote Link to post

Why?....dogs arn't born workers thats something they have to learn...and given that any pup you buy is around the 7 - 8 week mark it wont have learned anything from mum. and in the case of a 3/4grey x the likelyhood is that the dam hasn't been worked..so it dont really matter doe's it?

Guest oldskool Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 not to stir an arguement but IF i went to hancock and asked for a pup from say foxing parents... would he be able to tell me what dogs he has that have taken fox??? and you cant say "get a bull cross" Quote Link to post

I hear what your saying but it wont make any diff to your pup!....with Hancock your buying a particular x whether it works or not is up to you not the parents of the pup. Quote Link to post
