alrite guys,just wondering if my dog will be any good on foxes,hes coming up a year now.ive got a farm where theres a few foxes to be dug,and ive got a terrier finder and a spade lol.but what do i do just introduce him to a hole he goes in rabbit holes and bought me up a rabbit last week,i also have a black and white terrier that has killed a fox above ground.should i stick them in together so my pup dont get bullied,will he take hold of the fox instinctively.or should i find someone who already has working dogs to show him the ropes cheers any advice is better than none.

hi mark it really isnt that hard to be honest,but really study hard if you can find a mentor then its even better unfortunately i dont have one but am on the phone to the breeder everyday,but im doing fine and this is my first hawk and its the best thing ive ever done,the more you put into your bird the more you get out im not saying its easy but you do have to be commited and dedicated.but seriously study hard.cheers jan
