sniper 30 Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 hello all abit bored sat here so thought i would put this thread up! I Was just wondering what you reckon is the best dog for killing foxes night in night out. whatever situatuion. also are the dogs fast enough to catch foxes that are in the middle of the field as we all know the handy feckers can shift this is a genuine question so please lets no start arguments i reckon that a 3/4 greyhound 1/4 collie back to a 3/8 bull 5/8 greyhound was the best foxdog i had hard as f**k and could catch almost everything he was slipped on cheers all.
