Gundog Training Forum

Good to hear an honest report, thank you.

I do know a friend is gonna use Badgercourt Sirius once his bitch comes in. I'm guessing it could be one of his last litters as he is 14 now I think. One of the last with the old blood still running thick.

i picked up a dog yesterday it was the last litter that hattonswood broc studed.he is a 4 year old black and white dog.here is his pedigree

shame to hear they're both moved on. Will be interested to hear how the one you had fares in trials- what was her KC name?

I had wondered if Sirius was still alive so thanks for answering that too- hopefully your mate gets what he's looking for from the breeding.

you may well be right...he may have the strongest old lines but I reckon/hope there's more old shooting dogs around with a fair whack of Badgercourt than we may know about...just they're owned by shooting people who wouldn't think to advertise them as such.

Her KC name is Thornycourt Indie or Izzy can't remember exactly.

The bitch was nice I just had a better male showing more promise, I'm happy with the decision I made upto now.....until I'm beaten in a trial by her haha

aye, he had a litter with Syncerus Sally less than 4yrs ago for sure, cos FTW Syncerus Sinbad was one of them and he's definitely not 4 years old, more like 2.

16th of may 2013 he sired a litter from Grugiar Lilly, and then others in 2012 also so if the dogs 4 its not even close to being his last litter.
