robgriff1 4 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Was laid off a few weeks ago & after much thinking decided shooting was a luxury I couldn't afford next season. So, have given up my syndicate place, sold my shotgun & rifles and the most reluctant sale is my young springer bitch. She was bought last year to replace my older dog(behind in the picture,now retired). She has been basic trained, stay, sit, retrieving, whistle etc. She's had the air rifle & starter pistol but not shotgun yet. She needs someone with the time & patience to bring her on and I think she's gonna be a superb rough shooting and beating dog, way in front of my last two. KC reg & many FTch in pedigree. Its the hardest decision I've made for a while but as long as she goes to a good working home I know its the right one for her. PM me for any details. Reduced to £300.

All I'm after is my money back on her which with jabs was £400. Its the hardest decision I've made for a while but as long as she goes to a good working home I know its the right one for her. PM me for any details. she looks like she is part of your family in the pic mate, i got 2 cockers one 4 year old and a 9 month old one work is hard for me to at the mo but to tell you the truth i would do with out rather than sell my dogs no way ever. i can see that this is going to kill you best thing to do is keep her she noes you and you no she is safe with you. sorry to say that but dogs are like kids to me Link to post Share on other sites

The dog has been bred to work and if I can't give her the work she loves then she's not going to be that happy is she? I've hopefully found her a good shooting home with a retired gent who can give her the time and commitment she needs. As hard as it is, the decision has been made in the interests of the dog not my own feelings. A terrier needs the earth work its bred for(or bushing depending on what takes your drift!), a lurcher's born to run, a gundog lives to flush & retrieve shot game. This is what they love to do. Maybe think of it from the dogs perspective & you might understand. Link to post Share on other sites
