This may be discussed previous!i did try have a search and found nothing! Looking to see what opinions people have for bait for rats? Also live fox traps? I currently use sardines for the fox trap! Any real leftover food for the rat traps or else a sweet smelling horse feed! Someone told me peanut butter which i use for mouse traps and when i tried outside for rats i found that the bait was always gone and i trap never gone off!Field mice?

The terriers and terriermen of Ireland!
DigDeepIRL replied to DigDeepIRL's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
do you know anyone working from there lines?where in a rough area are you? i found the book to be a good read!Good to see something written about irish terriermen! -
top man! Only way to deal with trespassers! I dont think i would of even allowed them to walk! I would of been making them run like forest gump!Glad that it hasn't come to that extremes yet in Ireland but i don't think they would have the balls to do that in the country here as it would happen once and never again!

I know of a pack, which keep a goat,sheep and a deer in and around there kennels! They hunt in massively populated deer country!They literally just walk into forest where others wouldn't dream of and hunt! Never have an issue! I assume the hounds become so accustomed to the scent they don't recognize it with with hunting! I know keeping a deer around a pack isnt really achievable for most but its being done!

I know Mr bluck is'nt on peoples list of heros but the book he wrote about The terriers and terriermen of Ireland, i am just coming to the end now and was wondering what people opinion of the book was? I think its great to see irish history being shared! Also is there anyone here using any dogs from the men mentioned in the book?
-
i dont think they would be so upset with where we are with dogs! But i reckon there rolling in there graves with how laws have changed the sport! And also all the anti do gooders interfering!
