    He should slow when he settles a bit .Keep getting him out.Try not to get too excited and shout a lot,it just winds them up more.

    For bushing,hunting above or in the ground you will need drive coupled with intelligence and nose. Without good drive and the nose to keep up with that drive you wont get far hunting anything from rabbits to foxes. When you see a dog with the scent of a rabbit not far away and all it does is plod up and down and clings to the scent not quite sure what to do with it and often going back on the heel and pondering some more,then your chances of a catch or flush are low.A good busher would do like a good hound and drive forward on the scent with confidence and hopefully panic the rabbit into indec

    They are cracking pups mate. Should make useful durable dogs. I have a 3/4bred bitch.She has a red nose but niether parent has. She is a similar build to your bitch and very useful and intelligent. This type beats the greyhoundy ones hands down for alround including stamina,strike and nose. Good luck with whatever you keep yourself.

    Is that the Cumbria Beagles thats hunted by an older chap...John something? When I followed them at Shap I think it was. They used radios because they are all getting on a bit. Great little pack, we had a smashing afternoons sport with them. Besides my wife kids and me there was only one other bloke making up the field and he came on the bus! I think they are still going arnt they?hope so. john hume was Huntsman from 1972 Thats it I remember now you say it. I think he was a retired school master.

    If she is past it she wont get a proper season. If she is healthy it should be ok in my limited opinion. I have mated bitches of 6. One in particular i remember,it was her first litter and she just didnt know what to do when it came to giving birth.She needed help from the vet but otherwise had a very healthy litter. How is your bitch bred by the way?

    think i know who you mean.
  21. jeemes
    Good read mate. Nice voice on her. Have a good season.

    The petite will go through a brick wall. The drive is turbo boosted,but they will switch and hunt whatever comes.Keeping them to Fox never mind the same Fox might be a tad difficult. Beagles are better.

    You dont want to trust insects...they are all anteys.

    I agree with the half cross theory, but also I think in fairness you should be talking about hard driven dogs only,as these types test durability.Any cur can avoid knocks.A dog that does what he can to catch whats in front of him regardless is the one that needs to be durable. Ive seen some very hardy half cross Collie/greys and ive seen others (well known breeder)that tried to catch a rabbit on plough by running around the headland after it. The owner tried to laugh it off and say hes clever but I could feel his shame. The Greyhound needs to be reduced to at least half whatever you cross it w
