:p had to laugh at this - as my dad always used to say even the best dog man can't make a slow dog 'fast' but on the other hand if a dog is 'fast' a bad man can be lucky.  :thumbsup:   sorry just brought back a memory lol

'One swallow doesn't make a summer'

Just to clear a few things up, it was myself who was on the phone to Billy and it was me who said that i didn't agree with his comments, and both Billy and myself are good friends. John and Roses exploits both in Northern Ireland, Ireland, England and in John's case further afield need no introduction as it is common knowledge on k9 of their huge success's. Without argument their lurchers have been the most successful this side of the water.Opinions, as someone once said, are like noses....everybody has one....usually with two holes in it.

For a number of years if someone wanted to be successful at racing lurchers all you had to do was get the right breeding and you would have had success to some degree.

I'm sure that the likes of Flecther, Palmer, Farmer, Grocock, Taylor and others in England who were very successful in the lurchers found it much more difficult when it came to non-peds and it wasn't just a case of turning up as the quality of dogs is much better.

I also reckon that the top non-peds if they turned up at lurcher events would be very difficult to beat....but hey that's just my opinion.

I have never known as many racing bred lurchers to be in Northern Ireland as there is now.....things should be interesting over the next couple of years....all you need now is the shows to race each other at.

Eyup young'un, my names spelt Fletcher :thumbsup:

(w00t) i had a bet on that you wouldn't miss that.....guess who's a tenner better of (w00t)

looks as though Chatsworth is going to be a difficult one to win this year win with so many top doggy men/women attending. All the very best to everyone attending.

What makes a good doggy man. Does the dog make the man good or is it the man who makes the dog good?

Me too :thumbsup: but mine was for £20 :thumbsup: that you would reply before 3pm :thumbsup:

I love riddle's :thumbsup: it's the man/woman that makes the dog :thumbsup: but to be a very good dog-man/woman, you have to do it several times over and over again. One swallow doesn't make a summer :thumbsup:

About time there was a bit of banter on this forum (w00t)

Ok, you wise old owl......what makes a good summer.

Those who have said on here that they are going to Chatsworth...is it to spectate or compete. And who's favorite to win the racing

I personally don't think we have the best lurchers in Cornwall when it comes to racing, because I've seen some of the non peds race and they are bloody fast, but it's always nice to here if a dog from down this way does well.  In my opinion Mike Palmer has the fastest dogs here at the moment but even Mike knows there are faster dogs then his out there, i think even Russel with Ash would agree with me on this one because Mike doesn't give a dog away unless he has a faster one or two in his kennel.

I don't mean to upset any one with this comment, (it's only my opinion) 

Good racing folks.

Diane.

hi a lurcher and a non ped are 2 differant dogs and should be on 2 differant tracks,iam sorry i was talking about lurchers not non peds,i really do beleave we have some if not the best lurchers,theres a couple of people down here who breed there own and there dogs are fantastic at show events and working look at my dog brindle and its achievments this yr and its bred to work look at a certain person who we dont mention :sweating:   :sweating: and his dogs unbeleavable what they achieve,and no argueing there lurchers as well, :thumbsup:

You might not have the fastest lurchers in England down there.But if i was to gather up a few quid for one special occasion,(show n racing),then it would have to be the Cornish Championships.It's would be a long way to go ,just to get my ass kicked,but hey,you have to get it kiched somewhere,might as well be at the bottom of the world,ha ha. ...Billy...
 
Not sure what all the talk of Cornish dogs is all about... :wacko: .Colt walloped Ellie last august and this year he beat 2 well known and respected Cornish dogs at Monmouth (after Gracillis tears) Ash and a big dog belonging to Les Parish. Have to say bunch of fine lads too they all are :thumbsup:

Next year im defo going to try out this Lurcher spectacularoso !! it looks to be a fantastic event and second to none.

I'll have a go at answering that one Darren,as i think i qualify as an old owl too.(Don't know about the wise bit though).Would it be 2 Swallow's,as they usualy come in 2s.Or is that just the Irish ones.

:D There's more than 2 swallows in Northern Ireland and it's been a poor summer unless you're a duck which would make you cream quackers. There's a few cuckoo's on k9 who wouldn't be out of place if someone flew over their nest.

Cuckoo's don't have nest's, do they Billy, and Billy should know cos I've heard he's a bit of a twitcher.
