  1. having a debate with a mate about a dog he owned that took fox with other dogs but when tryed on own spewed it untill other dog joined in, the thing is he said that it did take them on its own another time, the dog was about 2 when i saw it spew it and he thinks it was the second fox it saw and the first single handed attempt, he cant remember how many foxs untill it did single handed as it was in the eaighties, anyway does any one recall a dog spewing on fox but then making the grade later on because i cant think of any and i saw my fair share back in the day, thanks for any feedback

  7. i have a 15 foot deben ferret finder with 2 15 foot collars, all in good working order, one of the caps of the collar is missing, you can get them of ebay for £5, i want to swop for a mk3 deben box and collar, thanks for looking
  8. i am having problems getting my dog to bring bunnys back, he fetches balls back he also retrieved a couple in the winter on the lamp but recently he has just stood over them chewing them, mostly mixi rabbits with the odd clean one , i have tried throwing them for him and once out of about 10 throws he carried back a little only to drop short and mouth again, the dog will be 2 in august so i think he is young enough to crack hopefully , looking for ideas please from the experienced people in these things, thanks in advance.

  17. like you say give then a bone to chew on every now an then i need a minser myself now i get scraps of three different butchers, makes sense to minse it
  18. which is why i asked to be honest, nothing more than nets to block holes it says, but a police countryside liasion officer has said that the use of nets is illegal
  19. could someone tell me if using nets to cover holes on fox earths is illegal or not, obviously done for the protection of game birds to be shot with a gun after, thanks
  20. cheers, does he retrieve alright, i always have problems with retieveing even after 20 odd years of trying, my pup certainly has the brains to be highly trained which goes against what a lot say of this type of dog
