I'm in south Donegal and I'm looking for this cross for doing a bit of cover. A pup would be ideal but would consider an older dog.thanks in advance.

Great pics fireman. Just so you know, there was never any intentions of removing live rats from nets. As you say, just to slow them up a bit and terriers a chance. Mesh wire looks handy. Thanks guys
Kenny
Thanks lad's for the feedback. I'm going to take a trip to killybegs net makers, I'm thinking 50yds of 1" mesh hung at 25 yds. How many meshes deep do you think lads. I'm thinking of adding a leaded footline?
Trying to gather information on making my own long net for rats lads, friends of mine do a lot of ratting with ferrets and terriers and have asked me about a net for the job. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kenny
Want to get a small bred hob as i prefer them to the much larger hobs that are around.anyone willing to sell one near me would be great. I'm in ballyshannon co. Donegal.

Dropped 3 in a seperate bag of their own one time. I carried two sacks at neck of the bag and my mate carried his like a child. Bang! .what a roar. Hare bit him thru the bag. I had to crawl out of the field with laughter. Some lump on his arm.
I've just watched lurchersireland DVD, rabbiting and fox control in Ireland by Tommy Cullen. Great watch. Good variety of hunting in it. Really enjoyed it.
I've always prefered the small hob or average sized Jill. If they come on a stubborn rabbit that refuses to bolt they can get over the rabbit and get to the neck, making a quick kill and move swiftly on. Never had to do much digging thank feck.
Got my whippet last year and I have to say she's going great on the lamp. Great speed, quick on the turn. She really moves thru the gears. Soft mouth too. Wouldn't swap her for anything else. Rabbit's only

I'm well in with my local butcher thank god. everything from livers ,hearts,red meat and fish.eggs are cheap too and ferrets love them.I know a man that feeds tripe to his ferrets all the time,great looking ferrets they are!
Kenny.
Myself and my two lads(8 and 13)just back from a quick lamp with the whippet.great to watch the wee bitch learn from early mistakes of overshooting the rabbits to carefully second guessing them.two nice runs at the end resulting in two nice Bunny's.lads were well impressed with their wee bitch as too were the ferrets!look forward to many more notes out

I learned from a man years ago not to hit a young dog.when he got frustrated he called it a day.started next day as a new day.he turned around some stubborn mutts
