i would get the dog working ( and proven ) on whatever quarry you work and then think of breeding bud. too many pups are from "non working " stock, its a working breed afterall. good luck getting the dog going and all the best with the future mating etc. waidmannsheil

can a bushing dog be used as a digging dog
waidmann replied to hunter 1's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
i would also say yes bud, mine will bush well and performs below well too (parson russel 2 1/2 years old). the advice with the collar on unknown ground is a good tip though! ( and keep the spade in the car mate). waidmannsheil -

the bavarian mountain and hannoveran hounds have been bred for trailing over a very long time (in principle the same dogs but the hannoveran is bred bigger and stronger). the bavarian is more agile in rough terrain. there is a lot of controversey withing both clubs (resulting in alot of members leving them and founding new ones). when trained to a high standard they are excellent dogs with massive finding will and drive once upon game. you may find as above that you will have trouble getting one from germany,austria,switzerland with papers (club dogs) as they will want proof of a hun

look into the "kreisjaegerschaft" (deutsche jagd verband) and they will sort out work for the terrier men on fox days and driven shoots on pigs/deer etc.the man in paderborn/gutersloh is wolfgang grabitz, he also organizes the traing courses for the examination to jagdschein (also look into "auslaenderjagdschein" if you have any qualifications which can be accepted you may not need to do the course!) depending on what terrier/dog you have to work the clubs will also organize trials/tests and work for their breeds. as with the sport (don't refer to hunting as a sport over there they don'

there was a threadon this a few months ago and it seemed the general consensus was it is better to remove the problem toe than to have constant lay off/injury ( for the dog!). i'm no expert and am sure that someone with first hand experiance will give you more help. what is the vet saying? which toe is it? is it broken? atb waidmann

a touchy subject. neither the .22lr nor the .17hmr are "ideal" foxing calibers, they will both kill a fox at decent ranges BUT neither are suitble without a backstop!! if there are no natural backstops then the only option is to elevate your position (high seats etc) or to create backstops/lure the to a backstop. many of us will have "opportunistic fox" on our fac for the.22lr. many of us have the .17hmr as a "foxing" on there too, that does not make them the best choice for the job. often "the best rifle for fox is the one you are holding at the time" as long as the power is there to kill

i would open up the middle of the pond and leave the protective tree's standing(they will reduce wind,stop it icing over as quickly). if there are no duck nesting there then get stuck in with the clearing and then start feeding(better early than late) little at a time or a hopper on the island once being frequented by wild ducks. placing a calling bird on the pond will speed things up(indian runner will normally stay near the water and call quite well in my experiance). creating the enviroment for the duck is one part of it,keeping predation down( if duck feel safe they will be happier t

imho this is the time for OUR organisations to be pulling out their proverbial fingers and getting some positive press,educating people,and creating a lobby for the LEGAL owners of firearms and not sitting it out in the hope that "nothing bad happens". i see the point of keeping a low profile but when is the right time to make ourselves heard? when a ban is in motion? NO. i find the reluctance of the organisations to get involved sickening tbh. at least the current headcase is not a legitimate fac holder. waidmann

i find the knife will not usally dull very quickly and can be "put back up" with a good steel. i have a few different ones depending on use of the blade( rough,crome and a ereo sharpener). laminate steel knives tend to blunt quite quickly( soft steel in the middle) and often need the stone quicker. what kind of blade is it you are using?

a bit off topic but did you not rescue a lurcher or simillar? you see them jumping at ironbridge but the "s bends/ meanders" further upstrem are reputed to be better for the "tourists". atb

410 Mossberg Hushpower vs. .22 Air rifle
waidmann replied to benbenukuk's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
the biggest question is can you sell/use rabbits with shot in them? i could not and so have a .22lr for the job(and 12g). most will not like rabbit with shot in. atb waidmann
