    Iv seen people bolt them from tree roots and holes in trees with ferrets ect but never had one to ground in a rabbit warren, tbf the dogs were marking it alot more excitedly than they normally would, I wonder if on our approach the dogs put it to ground they usually go ahead of us and mark warrens, shame they didn't catch it

    Them big dogs are usually slow to mature and later starters, give him time he will click impatience to start can sometimes ruin what would be a decent dog

    You can't really train them to mark time and experience and they'll do it naturally....the biggest mistake I see people making with a young dog is encouraging it to mark warrens and when the dog sticks its nose near they praise it......automatically the dog will register that behaviour is praised and you'll get a false marker

    Any working lurcher will get knocked if there worked regularly my whippet took her fair share as does my lurcher.....anyone that says they've been "lucky" and there dogs escaped any sort of injury is just plain bullshitting about working there dog.....speed and obstacles aren't a good mix and it's never a case of "if" it's "when"......most people at working dog shows are pretenders you won't see them our ferreting on a cold morning or out lamping on a rough night

    My mates lurcher had similar issues also an outside toe.....had it taken off and tbh hasn't effected the dogs ability and no trouble with the other toes so far

    When a dog has the blinkers on it ain't looking out for obstacles it's never a case of if it happens more when

    If your happy with how the dog performs and with how many your catching then what anyone else thinks is irrelevant really if it only runs what it thinks it can catch and your happy with that then great, I like a dog that will run anything I slip it on the amount of bunnies that end up being turned off a hedge or cover and end up in the bag that you'd of thought would just hop to safety, likewise when they do make it to cover a lot of the time iv had a dog follow them in hedges and catch them where they've just sat in the hedge or rough
