go for it mate,just put mine down after 16 years.We got him from the kennels as a pup,he was the runt of the litter we think he was a colliex lab.he was the best ferreting dog i have seen.better than any lurchers we have used ,mine or others. he loved to bush and caught plenty of game ,he was feircley loyal and a great companion.my mooching andferreting trips are not the same.
