Same here,
One thing iv realised tho is every mans wonder dog is different be it coursing (Preban) lamping, ferreing,mooching, or the terrier lads work , What one would class as a machine is another average lurcher that he would expect any in any of his old mutts ,
We all strive for better dogs if were honest, alright dogs maybe not the right word maybe lets say better strike,pace,wind, working brain ect ect even in our legends,
As the Auld saying goes there's ALWAYS one better, As Long as your happy and freezers full then he's doing his job.....
