  1. mate,iv had bull x in the past that can pick up the bunnies all night and still retrieve them live to hand even after they been started on the reds,but have also had them quite the opposite, which is ok if you like rabbit soup
  2. yes,i honestly have seen cubs about,yesterday morning 05:30 am just inside the hedgerow in a field,whilst driving down a country lane,three of them together playing with vixen
  3. sometimes,working a bull x can be the difference between a dog that does the job, and a dog that WANTS to do the job,i think there is a difference,jmo
  4. Why would getting her her brother help??!!" So that you can just take him away from her again. ThaT solves nothing mate. Dont just stick her in the kennels with the others. Get them out together first in the field. Lead walk them all together, let her brush next to the other dogs as you walk along, holding the lead in the same hand... Dont force anything into her mouth, it will do the dog no good, only spook her of the stuff your trying to feed her... As long as she is taking water, and not dehydrating, she will be ok. You say she takes out of your hand, well thats how it will have to b
  5. iv got the same ones but in red,had them about 2 years,plastic is now starting to crack and chip away,not bad value for a couple quid i suppose
  6. good point,but as its not my dog, i wasn't thinking quick enough to give him that answer

  9. the best way will allways be,to get someone else to do it lol,my lad of 9 is mad for it and wants to learn everything he can
  10. get a pic up pal,then others can give you some suggestions on adapting them,going through the same stage myself at the moment,be it slowly lol just a thought
  11. im only doing it as it seems more secure really,blocks will only be 3 courses high so no problem with the dogs not seeing each other,although it will be one kennel block,effectively giving three separate kennels and yes iv added my vote

  14. only ever done a bit of rabbit snareing but its good to see someone like yourself working through a problem and getting the desired result,very good that mate
  15. only ever used it on a saluki/grey pup i had years ago,good healthy pup,or so it seemed,got home and occasionally it was shitting with small amounts of blood in it.after a trip to the vet and a couple of weeks of unnecessary pills,was told to put her on chappie,very good for a young dog with this condition and worked almost immediately,the previous owner obviously feeding it something far to rich/strong whatever, for it,so as i say used it once with good effect
  16. mate has just phoned about his whippet pup,now 6 months old, saying its got dandruff and how can he cure it. i know the dog has been well fed,plenty raw meat and vegetables since hes had it but he admitted over the last month or so he been using a dry working dog food and a cheap one at that to get him through the summer,so put him back on track with diet. the dog is regularly treated for fleas and is bedded down on straw in the kennel,since it was 8 weeks old,any advice i can get from you guys to tell him will be much appreciated cheers rob. did see a thread on it recently but cant fi
