manc-munsters Posted December 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 hi russ yes, munsters are cool dogs. fantastic staying power in the field. been to a gspc field trial in north yorks today. one munster, two wired and 10 shorts. all the shorts were shivering like mad. wired and munster stood warm as toast. mind you, it was bitter cold. aka have been called a lot worse mate lol. reason behind avatar is that i WAS a pistol shooter, before the sport got raped by the govt of the day. i now have to go to bulgaria 5-6 times a year to get my pistol kicks!

manc-munsters Posted December 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 hi suzy dont know of any other munsters in my area. i had to travel to southampton for one of them, and lincolnshire for the other. if you ever need the name of a breeder let me know. there are lots of breeders out there, but most are for showing rather than working. best to stick with a working kennel if you want a good working dog. munsters are beautiful to work with. not as fast as a gsp, more methodical. extremely good nose and will work all day with no probs. not good as kennel dogs tho and they crave human company. dont suit anyone. photos? how many do you want? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Sweepy Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 why thank you russ you have just given me my fix for the day .now if you could just post a pic a day from now onwards .it would make up for not having one unfortunately i all ready have two young dogs. so it will be a very long time before i can get my hands on dream dog . but one day xxx suzy o and by the way mr flock your not getting your hands on my little fuff ball .and my choccies OVER MY DEAD BODY SUZY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc-munsters Posted December 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 ps why dont you post the pics of your gun blowing up :look: hiya mikky. thought it may be you when i saw the list of firearms. as you can tell, left a lot off my list on my first post no worris on the rounds. was just so you knew who i was. not seen bruces shotgun, what has he got now? heard of a spas12 (like mine) up for sale other week, but it sold same day. will keep my ears open will be new year before i get up there again. yet another operation has housebound me again for a while not allowed to show pics of the exploded rifle. going thru some "negotiations" with importer and manufacturer. promised not to show any photos until resolved (in my favour!). in the meantime, i suggest you dont by anything from the certain dealer it was bought from! have a good christmas pal russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
