well you pair of ????? , if you took the time to look back at the thread i put up about it at the time you would know exactly why!!! and guess what she didnt even have a collar on i was out dogging pheashants in (chasing them back to where they should be) on a huge broom bank, one minute she was there the next she was gone, so a slow search was started, to no avail at first, i left to speak to the near by farmers, then returned and looked again, this time i found her in a single holer, nothing more than a scraped out bunny hole..... so thats how i only wish my dogs were like yours, una
