    Plenty of terrier and lurcher work if you look in the right places. But your right about the denning. Also a couple of ferrets will open the doors for lamping with a lurcher too. You just need to gain their trust. Plenty to go at south in Angus too. 

    Cheers lad there seems to be plenty about just be abit different to what I'm used to.

    Forget it I moved up 40 years ago closed shop mate keepers won't take you on untill den time for terrier work that's April 15th you no might get a couple weeks work for your terrier then nothing till next year an a lot don't like digging, I ended up starting my own Fox control society with hounds to get work for my terriers sadly it ended a few years ago. As for lurchers  you will find it very difficult to get ground to run them. Get a couple well behav ed spanels and the doors will open?

    Cheers mate thought as much I knew it wouldn't be like Ireland were spoilt over here and I know it even know we complain ? was going to move over 10 years ago but the dogs and hunting  were the only reason to say here here. Last spaniel died last year.

    We went up for a weekend sport with a couple of mates of mates LOL , we did a bit of there ground then unknown to us they just jumped the fence farmer drove past us and just waved , other place someone came over to see what we where up to and said have a go on my place if you want . My daughters up in Aberdeen area i find them the nicest friendliest folk out and i would move up there  

    Yea cheers mate been up there many a time people are great was just wondering what the hunting would be like. Suppose just like everywhere else just ask for permission or chance it

    Sometimes when your 4 foot down and a mountain of soil on the bank people aren't so friendly ? atlest with a lurcher you can slip away.

    Just was looking to know really to know it permission was hard got or were the landowners keepers easy going.

    I lived in Aberdeenshire for 7 years, you won’t get away. It’s all heavily gamekeepered. I’m from Ireland too. Get in to the beating and opportunities will come up. There’s an awful lot of keepers with an awful lots of shit terriers. Loads of game to go at. Plenty for the lurchers. After a few years I had more permission then what I needed. Where abouts in Aberdeenshire you going? PM if you want. I might be able to put you on to a lad or two. It depends if they want to help though. 

    Cheers mate will pm you soon have alot off experience in the shooting industry as I was a beet keeper for 2 years and a part time keeper for 3 was brought up around game shooting and was beating and picking up on shoots since I was 5 just got more into the hunting as i got older.

     

    That's what the purpose of the post was all about I thought it would be a well keeperd area and would be hard enough to hunt in and get away than home

    Will pm you later mate thanks for your comment ?

  6. Never really post on here but needs must .looking some advice I'm moving to Scotland Aberdeenshire in July from Northern Ireland. hunting is very easy going in Ireland never get any bother of any farmers or anyone most of the time and hardly ever ask permission we just hunt away and nobody even notices we are there there is lots of game and we have plenty to go at  we lamp the whole island of Ireland for foxes and very rarely we get bother what's it like in Scotland?

    I think it wont be as easy  going meaby I'm wrong. I can only take a few dogs over with me and I thought I would never get rid of my terriers but I'm wondering is there much point taking the terriers will I get nothing but trouble or if I talk to a few farmers or gamekeepers could I get some digging. it took me near 15 years to get the dogs I have and lots of sweat and tears I just wouldn't want to give them up so easy. 

     

    Or would I just be safer bring over a few lurchers hunt away and hope for the best. 

    Been to Scotland many a times and seen loads to go at ??

     

    Any advice greatly appreciated 

  7. Done last week. All started with that stupid bitch who took that video of the stag hounds at loughbrickland and put it on Facebook now there looking a ban. But what's sad is you still have all the so called hunters still putting up pictures and videos all over Facebook of busted dogs and dead foxes you would think they would realise whats going on and stop stroking there own egos for a second cause there no call for it anyone who hunts knows what goes on in the feild and dont need all the glory hunters to show the world and f**k it up for the genuine hunters who are out for a bit of sport and to work there dogs.

  8. Its a pain in the ass iv a lurcher here 4 year old started doing it this year. Brought the dog up to work with terriers could hardly catch a fox in 40 acre feild but great round a hole. He did it first at start of the season didn't get him out for 15 hours was stuck with the game dead in front of him and dug the terrier at the other side of the borrow at an other fox. Did it again there on sunday fox went to bolt and the dog went down the hole like a rocket dug him and the terrier out in the feild fox dead again. It's a pain in the ass the dog could get stuck or could do serious damage to a terrier in the heat of the moment. He the best and most game lurcher I ever had not for the faint hearted ??
