    Wouldn't have given my best collie a second glance, but my god she was the most natural hunter I've worked.

    Worked a few pure working border collies to rabbits, all good, but some were much more natural at hunting up.

    Often wondered about whippet/springers as little mooching dogs, heard good things about them, but never seen one.

    Well, that helps shed some light on it,cheers, I know either would do the job, but like lurcher work, most lurchers will catch a rabbit, but some guy's preference particular types. So is there much difference in hunting style with regards to finding game.... Like I said they have to work to find a scent, not get bored too easily. Is there much difference in their temperament......and how laid back are they when at home. Are there particular strains which would be more suitable, I'm not up on if some are bred just mainly field trials or shoots etc. What is a fair price. Sorry f

    I've always used jack russell terriers to find and flush rabbits to my lurchers. I usually work a mixture of woodland, open fields and bramble/hedgerows. The dogs do well to find one or two rabbits where I work them and have to work for a scent. I've just lost one of my jack Russell's to the seasonal k9 disorder and my other is 9, so maybe in the next year or two I may be getting another dog and I was considering my options. I could get another jrt, but I know there is always the possibility of it going to ground which I don't want. I'm sure either a springer or cocker would do the jo

    Probably wrong, but I got told its harder for the dog to pull out of the collar as apposed to a normal collar, something to do with a whippets head not been much wider than its neck, can't remember where I heard this.

    I also have allergies, hay fever etc....some dogs do affect me worse than others........I have never owned a gun dog so couldn't really comment on that. Certain dogs, although short haired can bring on my allergies and asthma worse than than some long hair dogs, for example boxers.... I always have to wash my hands after fussing my dogs, if not my nose and eyes can get real bad. Best bet is keep it outside, or restrain to one room in the house. I dose up on a good nose spray, hayfever tablets and eye drops. Bedlingtons and poodles are the only ones I'm aware of that seem to be better due

    It's strange how a thread can get tangled.

    If you want something small have a look on youtube at some good XML cree led torches......great for what I do and their beams are amazing if you buy the right ones.........thrunite, sunwayman, fenix, tiablo. Going gear on youtube do some good reviews, distance shots with targets over 100- 300 yards. Word of warning though, if you get a torch that runs on 18650 batteries, make sure they are good quality regulated ones and use a recommended charger, if they are inferior type they can unexpectedly explode. Mine runs on simple AA batteries, if you go down this route you want to buy ene

    I'd prefer a bit of mix of beardie and border. Mine had all the attributes i need in a good mooching dog, and wow could he hunt up and most most importantly to me, a great temperament. I've often wondered why they are not more sort after.

    Poor pup, you did you best you could passing the others on to mates, it's just Sod's law a dick got hold of one...get it back pal, find his address out, ring up up as a stranger wanting to buy it, get his address and get yourself round there
