I'm not sure what you mean a go to grounding in GB..go to jail more like..I'm sorry but I dont understand what you mean..over here I never had a problem with hunting. And when the cops do see you digging to your dog there actually in awe that the dogs do that..and barn clean outs are more then welcomed...over by you guys it's more popular then it is here so we don't have the problems you guys have..

I will post pics of my pups tonight..thanks for any advice I appreciate it..

Hi foxdropper, snow isn't a bad thing, just makes it hard to see my go to ground because it's under the snow..I'm gonna try and take pics today of it..and I like to use it for my pups. I wouldn't send one of my pups that's only 3 maybe 4 months old in a set..a 25lb coon or ground hog will have there way with them. I use it for fun and to let them use there nose to find the quarry I put in at the other end in a roll cage..so they can work it through the cage..so it's teaching them a few different things..one to locate and go in, 2- to use there nose, 3-to work the guarry.bay and engage..from y

She loves a good working dog and is not afraid to get.dirty..but, she will not dispatch one..the lady that got me into this is around 70 years old now and one of the finest dog women you will ever met..she has working Jacks and they are as tough as they come..she won't keep a none worker..all her dogs have there bronze med..this lady changed the way I looked at hunting! I never thought of hunting the earth then she took me out and I fell in love..she taught me everything I know and I'm forever gratefu

Yes guys I know, and I do apologize for my mistake..I'm gonna have to figure out how to post pics today and I will show you my dogs. The go to ground I have might have to wait because it just snowed here..but I will take off the tops so you can get the idea..I put it in the ground...I just showed my 2 pups a med rat last night. My female seemed confused of what to do, still to young I believe..so I let my male pup take a look and he jumped right in and did what he had to do..then I let the female in on it and she got hint...I'm gonna wait a few days and let them tease on it in a roll cage and
