macker 5 Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 the problem with all you hare coursing lads is that you all hate each but i do think the man deserves some credit. in the way he rares his pups he can rare twenty pups to a standard most young lads cant even rare one . have only met the man twice and some of my mates dont have time for him. but he can bring on a pup to a high standard and is hard to beat each year when the lads meet up every year to see whats best. if you dont like him fair enough john as there are a few more that dont too. but to say all his dogs are sheep killers is a bit far from the truth. macker Quote Link to post

macker 5 Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 have been told he likes to use same stud for all bitches but i am sure mistakes have been made with all those dogs .has to be said old irish lady was some bitch but by any standards and i much prefare his old dogs like her which so many where good alrounders and not just hare dogs. he is a money man but i seen alot of his old stuff take every thing. most of the top alrounders i seen or knew of where from his line. have seen some of his stuff run by well known lads in louth think you might know the lads. and have to say their dogs very good too. thats a few years ago now. but my mates still do a bit with them and their dogs are still a bit special just my opinion macker Quote Link to post
Guest oldskool Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 i had a lad pm me there about a litter of kings pups in ballymoney... when i went to look about phillip king i was hoping to find genuine irish terrier x greyhounds but now it seems to me that its all line bred saluki with a hint of irish terrier somewhere so they're not for me but if anyone is genuinely interested in the litter pm me and i'll pass on the name Quote Link to post

I am sure that every one in Ireland has heard of Mr King, but who is paddy sweeney, not been smart. Quote Link to post
