A JR I had as a young fella.
His qualities were endless
Would track a rabbit like a hound and he would spend as long as it took working the scent out and would not quit. Once he hit a line it pretty much game over if I did my bit once it went to ground.
If a rabbit bolted and slipped the nets he would follow it to ground then turn round and come back and help out until it was clear then take me where he had marked.
If a rabbit bolted through sheep he would run wide so as to go around the sheep rather the storm through them if he could.
110% with sheep I could literally bet an arm on him.
Marked silent and never dug. Never went to ground on rabbits
I have said it before if he marked and I couldn't see him and said where are you he would give a quiet woof. If I called twice more each woof got louder. But after three woofs that was my lot lol though he would some times come to get me.
If cows came to close to the holes when ferreting he would herd them back a bit out the way then come back to the job in hand
He worked at a tidy range too until he hit a scent.
He was also an earth dog and stayed until dug.
A real jack of all trades.
Still remember taking him to the vets with his stomach tumour not to return and he gave me a slopping great lick on the mush as I was driving him thereHe sounds like a special little dog for you Terry. Nice tribute to his efforts for you.
