longdog13 36 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Hi all, recently acquired a lurcher pup, see my other topic, He's 12 weeks, good as gold. Now, i was wondering if anyone has or does let their pup come along on a ferreting sesh to have a look? And, seeing as he's short coated, i was thinking of a whippet coat for him, he's great out in the cold, running around in snow like a loon, but i was thinking that standing around waiting for action might be a little much for a young'un Thoughts please peeps ATB LD13 Quote Link to post
