hare_n_hounds 157 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 I've heard people ask the same question [bANNED TEXT], my opinion is of that its what you put into a dog that makes it not its blood. Just think of some of the old lines (im talkin 20/30 years ago) that are stated in adverts for pups for sale you see in the countrymans weekly every week, just imagine how diluted the 'bloodline' is?!

Pickle 0 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 in my opinion a lot of its to do with the man behind the dog. But if you had the choice of a mongrelised dog and a dog with a well noane bloodline i would take the well noane bloodline any time. cheers Quote Link to post
hare_n_hounds 157 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 BLOODLINES DONT MEAN SHI T , ITS WHAT YOU SHOW THE DOG THAT MAKES THEM- F A C T . 9 TIMES OUT OF TEN OWNERS CASH IN ON THEIR DOGS NAME IF ITS 'PROVEN'. TRUE LURCHER MEN NOT IN IT FOR THE MONEY, AND ONLY BREED IF IN NEED (2KEEP 1 BACK) AND GIVE THEM TO FRIENDS THAT THEY NOW ARE GENUINE. Quote Link to post

shaddow 166 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 id defo have a pup from say 2 very good dogs from not known lines , but not just any litter of anything , im not saying foxy charlie , dancer , tramp blah blah is the be all and end all of coursing cos its not , like someone said earlier these lines are all diluted now as a lot of people are just buying pups cos there dog was out of the grandson of foxy , or great great great grandson of charlie and this has caused a lot of shite to be bred , and the money involved in these pups is makin people breed more and more shite the last 2 litters of saluki x's i bred i gave all the pups away for free to mates , and i gave a cracking little 15 mnth old bitch away free to a mate off here a month ago , and i could of sold her for top money to 2 or 3 other lads that was desperate for her.

brookie 1,193 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 theres no lucky lines what so ever in tramp i know how hes bred gaskin bred tramp and sold him as a youngster they still got tramps father alive and well a good age he is now they managed to buy him back and the rest is history now theres not a dog in the country that as produced the quality of match dogs that tramp as nor as there been many dogs that were on a par with him in his day ive seen most of them run at some time or other nor did many of them have a career as long as him and saying that is teastament to how good this dog was because his owners standards and expectations of a dog are very high indeed and they only keep and breed from the very best that are tested to the hilt on the very best of hares twice and three times a week season after season the gaskin familys history and coursing back ground speaks for it self and they will more than put theyre money where theyre mouths up to back theyre dogs up against any dog in the country they do lose occasionaly but not very often im not going to comment any further on this thread because i know they wont appreciate theyre name being bandied about on this site but please dont try to typecast theyre dogs when with the greatest of respect i say the majority of you know nothing or very little about them there was some derogatory comments made last year about henrys old dog ice when i mentioned this to henry at the time is words were tell them to ring me i got 10 grand to put up to say they are talking shite but like i just said boys lets leave it alone and keep names out and only discuss together what we all know about Quote Link to post
