  1. Hi guys , got a phone call from the farmer last night , he has a fox that he wants rid of off the land so I said id take care of it , I already own a Bellman and flint locater and collar , but one of my mates has the locater box and I have the collar , lol, one of my other pals has a deben MK3 box , and I was just wondering would the deben box work with the bellman and flint collar ? I've never tried this and neither has he , I usually just use my bellman and flint box and collar together, but as above will the deben box work with the bellman collar ? Cheers guys

  17. This is my first terrier and I've been going out with harriers for the last 2 years hunting and digging foxes, so I got myself a terrier, I'm not interested in digging foxes this time of the year, I only want my dog to start travelling some disused earths just to get him used to going to ground for the coming season, as I said its my first terrier, if getting him to travel empty earths is a good way to get him used to going to ground and travelling is there anyway I could do to get him to travel ? Thanks
  18. Hi all, I got myself a seleham russle terrier hoping to dig foxes with him this coming winter, he is 10 months old at the moment and has killed a fox in a stop end already, i was walking him around some disused earths today, he stook his nose in the mouth of the earth and smelled inside and walked away ? Should he of travelled the earth or will the terrier only go in if there is a fox inside the earth ?
