probably just kicked the bucket pal...could possibly be a car hit it tho.my mate hit a rabbit with his car the thing just sat in the middle of the road sitting up he stopped and i went get it as we wernt going that fast it had a little blood on end of its nose and when i skinned it of the only bruising was on its head were the bumper ad hit it.
A little bit more info would be better lol.say for instance if you do a lot of ferreting and daytime mooching in wood land and around hedgerows then a beddy wippit grey or a coli wippet grey would be fine.
spoke to the man a couple times and he seemed to no his stuff.3rd or 4th time i spoke to him he offered to gift me a pup as i didn't have a dog on at the time.he seemed a good gent.
in all fairness mate most smaller dogs iv seen what were 21 to 22 were am,amazing for day time mooching around hedgerows and rough and reed beds.they seemed to fly trough the hedgerows just as quick as the rabbits.
