brookie 1,193 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Seeing THAT picture of a certain dog in front of a rake of rabbits (in another thread) Reminded me of the controversy it caused in the "shooting news" back then. So what do people think now ? Is it possible for one dog to take 100 or more rabbits in one night. ? Bearing in mind, the rabbits have to be carried off the ground etc, i still doubt it. What do you think ? my [bANNED TEXT] had a collie whippet and he took it somewer up scotland and got 160 rabbits in 12 hours. sadly the dog got stole out his kennels about 3 years ago now. thats some going for a collie x whippet thats a rabbit approx every four and a half mins for twelve hrs non stop running catching retrieving legging not taking into account missed rabbits or taking a breather or letting the dog have a drink ive been in the dog game a long time and this internet shit gets worse Quote Link to post
storm323 191 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 I think it could be done(not by me by the way)you would need a good dog with alot of exprience handerling alot of runs of this kind to catch 100,you would need alot of ground that holds alot of rabbits so you can keep the dog fit,and as been sed alot of drive in both man and dog.maybe it will be done in the future i do belive it has been done before.and as for what would you want with 100 rabbits put them in the frezers and sell them i think you would have done yourself and your dog proud Quote Link to post

poacher3161 1,766 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 I think alot has got to do with the ground you are running on and wat time of the year it is like september rabbits are a lot easier than december rabbits.I heard that tommy mcphee acheived this number with one dog on a few occasions.atvb Quote Link to post
