Guest pontypoacher08 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 When I first started out out with lurchers a dog was valued for its pot filling abilities. A dog that could take the full spectrum of fur and feather was considered the ultimate working companion.Nowadays the ultimate lurcher is seen as the most macho looking bullcross that can soak up punishment and slaughter foxes night after night and never get sickened. The old quotation: "The unspeakable in pursuit of the uneatable."comes to mind. We've lost our way a little. Give me a dog that can put meat on the table rather than a fighting dog/ running dog hybrid anytime. Personally I'm sick to death of 16 year old morons posting sicko photos of their fox catches with dogs that would be better served hunting lions or some other larger game. The bull cross has done nothing for the general lurcher owner other than give us a bad name. Discuss. PS. Insult me as much as you like but don't call me an anti, that is below the belt. the bullx in my aviator put a full spectrum of fur & feather on not just my table but alot of my mates to & not meany birds got away from him he cought woodcock, phesant, partrige,& pigion on meany days & nights so dont joge a book by its cover. if you dont like them dont get one but dont go sterio typeing other breeds just becouse you dont like them becose that is below the belt. each to there own & most 16 year old dont have bullxs they have bottles of cider & stand out side shops lol. ha ha u cant spell 4 shit!!!!!!! lol Quote Link to post
jamiekelly 0 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 the end of the day everyone to there own id rather see the dog put up a cracking course than go smashing up foxes nd laid off but maybe thats just me Quote Link to post
jackarmstrong 4 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 i agree totally with Labsnlurchers its not the dogs thats the prob its some of the feckin owners! There was a spate of newspaper articles about dead deer in some of the local papers, these morons were killing the deer and leaving the carcass hanging from a tree or in the middle of fields....Idiots the lot of them the way i see it, kill it take it eat it or kill it for a purpose, not to make yourself look like a good hunter or your dog!

jackarmstrong 4 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 im not one to judge a dog but i agree that every person i see with a bullx is young lads that just want the dogs to go out and bash fox and the deer. dont get me wrong i have nothing against these dogs but if im not mistaken isnt it banned now to do that what these dogs are mainly for. i mean if you were to just go after the legal quarry in this country i know you dont need these big hefty dogs to do the job thats just my opinion dont like it then tough i see more priks with other breed lurchers in hartlepool shouting they done this & that with there dogs. talking a good talk but doing nowt but say they cant catch nowt local now there was loads in the summer. they killed loads of baby rabbits & pregnant does in the summer. but now cant catch anything local with there super dogs. last time i whent local 2 nights ago i only cought 2 rabbits out of 4 runs with my 27tts bull x but my mate has been looking after it up the garden for the few 2 week becouse i have been bad. but hasnt been walking it so he is a bit unfit & you cant catch big numbers if you dont run then. half the people around my way go on as if the rabbits are extinc after they have been local becouse there dogs not up to the job or they have no field craft & cant even get close to any think. there isnt meany but you can still get a few. they think a big light & a fast dog with a load of stanima & there the best hunter in the country. if your not going to kill a hundred rabbits with a dog why do you need so much stanima if your lamping why do you need the fastest dog just to show off ?. as far as hunting fox & deer is now baned so theres no use for bullxs. hare couseing is banned but people still have salukis & salukixs what do you think most poeple keeped then for pre ban. sorry if i affeded any saluki owners i didnt mean to. its just a example & i could fill the page with them useing diffrent breeds its just the first to come to mind. i have nowt agains salukis or any other breed each to there own. before you say you keep little rabbiting lurchers or wippets good for you i have a wippet it catches rabbits just as good as my bullx but is no better at catching rabbits then my bullx on the lamp for me if i am honest. like i sead you dont need speed to catch a rabbit on the lamp & i dont go to catch big numbers to show of so dont need stanima. i did when i was a kid & first got into lurchers but i just go for what i need now unless i go with someone that dose it for pest control. becouse i dont need a dog that can run all night just one that dosent miss to meany becouse i dont leave any thing behind & wouldnt kill a rabbit to rot in a field or anything that can be eat becouse i cant carry them all or i dont need then. so you cant of seen me about then lol. the reason i use my bullx more is if i go with someone else & they take a dog the wippet whants every couse. if the other dogs running a rabbit the wippet yaps witch isnt good if you whant another run in that field. its the same at home a bit hipper where my bullxs seem a bit more laid back for me. just my apinion abit diffrent to your but most peoples seen to be & i am not just a young lad that gose out just to bash fox or deer or even rabbit or hares for that matter. why should people keep a dog that doent suit them just becouse it has someting they dont need. diffrent people need diffret thing from a dog it dosent make the dog any better or worse it just makes the expereance of owning a dog a bit better for the idievidual. & there is pricks with all breeds of dogs not just bullxs or even lurchers. that you are right about but to say every bullx owner you see in hartlepool whants to kill every thing you must just see people with bullxs & imagen them being like this & not even know them becouse i know a few bullx owner that ant out to just bash fox & deer as you put it. if you dont like it tuff dont sterio type people you dont even know you right mate im from hartlepool, there isnt many rabbits about but i get my fare share. and the reason there aint many rabbits about is because of idiots goinng out in peak summer time picking off the babys and the pregnant does. if it wasnt for people like that maybe the population would of grew and i could go out and get a few rabbits for the pot without a struggle but the amount of lads with lurchers all hunting the same feilds round this area is ridiculouse! the one thing u were wrong about is the younger generation spoiling it for everyone, im sixteen i dont have a big meaty bull lurcher to hammer fox and pose with them i have a small bitch lurcher, i take rabbits, and have took hares pre ban of course but didnt see the point in chasing fox before the ban because i have no use for them, and no reason to kill them.

The bull cross has done nothing for the general lurcher owner other than give us a bad name. Discuss. PS. Insult me as much as you like but don't call me an anti, that is below the belt. The bottom line is Bezza that people keep lurchers for different reasons.What you hunt,where you hunt and when you hunt will determine what lurcher will best suit your needs.If I was an out and out hare man Id maybe travel along the saluki line as they are the most consistent it would seem on this quarry,if rabbits were my main quarry Id maybe go along the whippet line for the same reason.Personally I like hunting foxes and one of the lurcher types I find very consistent on this quarry are bullgreyhounds and its my perogative to keep what I like,like yourself.If I hunted the odd the odd hare,the odd rabbit and a fox now and again I think something different might suit me better. Fact is too that 1% or less of us hunt just for pest control and hate doing it,if were honest we love to hunt and are glad of socially acceptable reason to do it.The desire to hunt is in all of us left over from the caveman days before Tescos and is nothing for us to be ashamed about,if it wasnt for that hunting instinct none of us would be here today,we'd be extinct. I think your right about some young fellas with their halfbreds posing about but that is tha nature of being a young fella,we all posed in our own way when we were 17,18,19 etc whether its was with our souped up car,big hi-fi or whatever and its not suprising that they are attracted to muscular bullgreyhounds,it is sad though that they can and do tarnish the image of hunting by their sometimes ignorant actions. I think there are as many people who pose about to with their hancocks,minshaws,lagunas or whatever type of lurcher that is top of their particular game so think that its unfair of you to try to diminish the bullgreyhounds reputation because of the way their owners present them.Fact is they are one of the most consistent dogs on things with teeth.Before everyone gets all uppity I also know that theres colliex that catch foxes and I know that theres bullx that catch hares,Im speaking generally.

victor 10 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 so the 16 year old peopel cant take down a fox with their bullx and be proud of it? no matter how big or small a fox is, if i take it and it has no chance, im fecking stoked. because yeah it's filling the pot but is still a machiene. i know what your on about, but meah, thay do their thing and you do yours. we all havent lost ways. just thort more about them!
