  3. You can rat all year mate if ya can get it pheasant shoots normally end of shooting season and some times when all the poults have been released from pens
  4. Off to a pheasant shoot for a day's ratting tomorrow terriers and smoker at the ready should be some action black stuff and white well looking forward to it
  5. Yeah between me and be mates we ave 4 I trained 2 of those and have just got a new bitch pup can honestly say they are great bushers but in my experience you can't just get a pup and let it loose with terriers to learn or you are gonna have huge problems with control and speed of hunt
  6. Jcm if you want a springer to Bush independently of you the 2 things I would train in are stop on whistle and return on whistle both as important as the other needless to say but I think you might get saw lips blowing the stop lol as bin said once a springer gets its head down feck they can be hard to stop especially if allowed to chase once quarry has bin flushed it is possible to get the dog to flush then stand I've found this easiest to do believe it or not by taking the dog lamping along side a lurcher slip the runner and when the springer wants to chase strongly discourage it atb
  7. No mate not to late best to start after a good long walk once the pup has had some steam blown off it use your steadiest ferret put a little watered down milk or goats milk in a dish.and let em drink together if the pup shows to much interest in the ferret a good stern no should do the trick it also helps if the pup can see your ferrets in cage or mews all the time atb
  8. what brown dog would that be? all joking aside he is a lovely animal but...... the man is proud of him so he should be
  9. In what way?Work wise, etc? I ask, cos I like the look of them dogs + the type I'm considering myself.Ta every hancock dog I've worked with or seen worked have been capable in my opinion for what it's worth 3/4 cross is alot quicker than 5/8 3/8
  10. Thing is with them is you have to put the time in whistle training once this is done you can keep em as close or as far from you as you want I just bin gifted a bitch pup the sire won't go more than 30 / 40 yards away unless sent out coz that's how he has bin trained like with all dogs they only do what's trains in or instinct better nose than any terrier
  11. If some one 4 times your size came up behind you and grabbed you by the hips you would worry I reckon lol might even yelp
  12. The sire to my new springer pup will retrieve shot fox the fecker will drag it right back to ya feet
