got the first dig out of the way for my 18month old borderxfell dog put a fox out of the cover and the lurcher run it till a we 2 hole earth so we wanted to get my young dog a handy dig got this dig a

Far from it lad ,give me a dig over a bolt any time,not only is the the terrier getting fulfillment but great exercise for your self,better than working out in a smelly sweaty gym,i would much rather

No lad the fox lives in a hole in the ground called an earth and your terrier is basically the sheriff telling him to get the fcuk out of Dodge

Im new to this terrior digging stuff, i dont understand why you dig can someone please explain :) thanks.

Lad you said in your thread about your lakeland dog ,that your father rears pheasents,so i reckon you should well know why foxes need controlling.

digging them is one of the most productive and humane ways of control ,they have no natural predators in the wild so in order to keep their numbers down man has to intervene.

 

look at the urban fox population ,9 out of 10 of them are mangey skinny specimens because they have no way of proper control on them.

 

the reason most of us do it is control and also enjoy seen working animals doing what they where bred for(look up the meaning of the word terrier)

 

some people enjoy using their dogs for fly ball or agility or simply just playing fetch in the park,we are no different, just into a different game :thumbs:

obviestly im all for hunting and keepng the numbers down. i have only ever shot them. does the terrior get stuck down there or something :) ? thanks for the reply ! :D

 

the fox has 2 options bolt from the earth if it is possible or stay and face a terrier until the owner digs down and removes them ,and no the terrier is not stuck if the fox bolts the terrier will come up if the fox stays the terrier should stay with it until dug too
