a couple of them rabbits looked smashed to bits and covered in blood are your dogs a little heavy mouthed ??? .... i have a nice spot for flushing hares on right next to a top ferreting spot and i am a lot closer than 350 miles .... i may be off next week mark if uyou want i will witness what your dog can do on open land retrieving a shot hare then we can have a days ferreting ... i will bring along my collie mungrel pup so she can learn how to ferret by watching your dogs .............

in my opinion the type of dogs you keep would struggle badly on a daytime hare in open country given fair law, they are to small and are better suited to rabbits ...............

there are some proper retards writing in that pathetic excuse for a hunting magazine ... rats chewing their way INTO a ferret court ..... I DONT THINK SO .....................

thanks for the offer mark ... maybe next season when the pup has matured a bit more .... however she is more of a day dog than she is a lamper ... she has only been out on the beam about 5 times ...........

-
for it to be the opposite front and rear legs on a diagonal angle i would suspect that would be a back problem ... a twisted or pulled muscle or he has pinched a nerve on the turn maybe ..............

i was out walking tegan on friday afternoon when i came accross a fella who had shot a roe and it had run on so i cast off tegan to track it ... the roe was around 90 yards away when she seen it and she closed the ground very fast ... she made this an easy and efficient track ... not bad for 17 month old 23 inch collie cur

depending on how badly torn they are i cut them off the healing process is a lot quicker as the risk of infection getting inside a healing cut is negated and if the dog doesnt have a stopper hanging off then it cant catch it on anything .... if you take them off it has to be done immediately after they have been damaged .............. this bitch was running again with no probs in less than 2 weeks ..........

rob i wasnt talking about giving the dog a full meal ... i am saying to give the dog a fatty meal of about 1/4 of what he normally has 5 hours prior to lamping ... this meal will be fully digested by the time you go out and the fat converted to energy waiting to be used as the dog depletes his energy source over the course of a hard nights lamping ...........

yes mate they will come loose with no human contact at all ... if the chain lead etc becomes twisted knotted etc sand rubs up against it when under tension it will pop open ... also the dog can rub against something and the action will be released ... i would class them as 85% safe ............

what you must remember when keeping more than one dog is to give them all the equal amount of work ... keeping one dog as a back up just doesnt work as the dog will have seen so little work that it will be of little use to you when you finally get it out in the field ... i know so many blokes that keep more than one dog but will always send (old bob) out on the difficult rabbit or lamp (old nell) when the weather is spot on .... all your dogs should be given an equal chance so that you are not using a '' back up dog'' instead you have one laid up so you are just using your other dog ..........
