    hi folks although ferreting and lamping gets me all my rabbits i was looking at keeping rabbits primarily for meat was wondering do any of you keep them and do you either keep them in hutches or give them a patch of well fenced in pasture ive 3 acres so would be able to do either just figuring whats the best way forward

    alryt lads was out last night with two of my lurchers one being a collie-whip-grey my rabbit dog as such soft mouth good coat and feet and stamina i only ever run her on rabbits then other dog i deergeyxgreysalbullgrey ill run her on all game was chatting to one of my mates today who just has the one dog got me thinking what do you lads prefer having a few dogs for different quarry or do u prefer just having the one dog for all game obviously you obtain a closer bond with dog if its just you and it anyway what are your thoughts

    Hi lads as title says do any of you shoot and keep lurchers ? After a long period of thought I settled on a ess pup as mainly rough shooting where I am there is plenty of work for the lurchers between rabbits and foxes so the lurchers are worked at least twice a week just wondering do any of ye work ur lurchers alongside your gun dogs I have a little bushing terrier so was wondering in your opinions should I keep them separate or train ess pup to work alongside the lurchers too I would still want ess to do her job on days I go shooting so essentially I'm wondering will me working her or traini

    Hey folks had a pretty shit evening just got in from burying my 4 yr old beddiewhip x colliehound he was just gone 4 I got a call from a local farmer about rabbits went down put 3 out with terrier which my dog caught he then spotted one under a thistle took chase a just as he went in for the strike he cracked his head off a small boulder type rock he died instantly carrying him back to the car lifeless and limp seemed to take an age and digging that hole was horrible first working dog I've had to bury while out doing his job rip ted

    My whippet retrieved from the off as a pup I trained him with tennis ball or dummy and he smashes squatters just as well as moving prey some folk think it depends how you entered them if his first dozen or so were on the run as soon as lamp was on he mite only associate moving prey as a target but remember a whippet is just a small running dog and so would have very different natural behaviour patterns to a lab my whippet wouldn't show much interest in prey that is already dead though and would only carry dead animals at a push if my hands were full unlike a lab or other gun dog that will do i

    this is half the reason rspca have so many lurchers circumstances very rarely change so drastically to warrant getting rid of a dog should never have taken her on in the first place if you give her away itll be her third home in less than a year not the best of starts in life for a working dog. lurchers as a general irrespective of cross are very loyal. As generally i know i do proper dog men spend more time with dogs, in field, pen shed than with the wife if you do get rid of her dont bother getting another dog get a goldfish that wont challenge you to, too much responsability
