there really is no comparison ... a night dog has to learn to run to the end of the beam to find a rabbit ... then if its decent will learn to box them off a hedge and then retrieve to hand ... thats about all there is to lamping ... how you can say that a lamping dog needs more brains than a day one beggers beliefe ... you have only had ferrets a very short time so you have not done a lot of day work and have obviously never seen a good day dog work with the ferrets and nets .... a good day dag should be able to be sent out to hunt up a field push out and catch the game and retrieve to hand .

the bitch was bred reared and trained and entered to be a daytime ferreting dog and if she did a bit of lamping on the odd occasion then good BUT it wasnt a requirement .... if i was after a lamping type dog then i wouldnt have gone for a cross with so much brain .... sometimes a thinking dog is not whats required for lamp work ...... a combination of the dogs injury and the confidence knock she took and her still being very puppyfied are among some of the reasons that i KNOW she isnt ready to be lamped hard yet ............ somtimes a thinking dog is not whats required for lamping work

both those are bitches and have never seen a track and the bloodlines are nothing special but best of luck with the pups .........

no her tounge will never be the same i fear ... the vet told me that the first month would be crucial to recovery and the most improvement would be then ... she manages well with an injury that could have finished her and i have absolutely no complaints about the way she works ...........

a big thank you to CHALKY and TBF for inviting me and tegan up to their bit of permission ... and what a cracking little spot it was ... it was a nice change for me and tegan to be ferreting something other than open warrens ..... the day started well with the terrible twosome turning up late then needing a caffeen fix before we headed off ... however we only had a short drive and we were soon surrounded by coneys just waiting to be caught .... tegan worked well again today and accounted for a fair few bunnys ... she is turning into a really handy little ferreting dog and she is a pleasure to

mostly i feed raw diet chicken mince pasta fish ect ......but once maybe twice a week i mix raw mince with with good quality dried food ....but i always add liquid e.g. gravy or what ever ....you know your stuff socks of the feeding side of things ....so how would the digestive side off things work if i did that ..???ive never seemed to have any probs ..... cheers snoop .. the problem with dried food mate is that it is desinged to break down slowly in the dogs gut and realease a steady amount of the minerals and vitamins over an 18 to 24 hour period thats why you should only feed the me

dogs can digest a full stomach of food in 12 hours so you can feed a dog the normal amount of food (or if its going to be worked hard the next day i give extra) 12 hours before going out .... CASPA you dont seem to know a lot about feeding mate ... your dogs will be running on empty if you are only feeding a small amount 24 hours before taking them out .... if you feed a nice fatty meat diet on the saturday night you WILL get more out of the dog the next day .........

raw onion pases warms.and keeps germs away what a load of crap onions will do nothing for a dog with worms ... you have been listening to fools mate ..........
-
firstly you shouldnt feed dried and meat together as the dogs gut absorbs them at different times and this can cause digestive problems ... and secondly you shouldnt feed onions as the can cause upset stomach, and can cause heinz body anemia ................

as i keep stating i dont believe they had Waardenburgs ... i believe the recesive gene in the silver caused the problem ... crow they ranged from being very weak boned feeble creatures to having deformed spines to their legs not being formed correctly .... they were just weak and feeble creatures that i had to cull so thats why i wont embark on a silver to silver mating again ...........

i bred silver to silver twice out of seperate lines and got the same result both times ... i also know of other litters produced by silver to silver mating that were the same ............
