Plumbers are cracking bushing dogs mate! They will they hunt cover no problem, they have beagle blood in them so their nose is good, mines never made much sound when hese on target. Mines steady enough, hese keen but he dont go to far. il get a pic of him crashing into a bush after a rabbit in a bit.

Plummers are cracking bushing dogs, although plumbers are too noisy as the wrenches and pvc pipe fittings they carry in their bag scare away quarry...........

I don't do a great deal of bushing but the dogs enjoy going into the cover when needed.

 

Dog followed bunny onto this heavily covered banking...

They excel at bushing and bay like hounds on a line.You wont find a better nose on a terrier,and not too many equal.

Put the training in and they are very biddable-quite a few work as gundogs.

All in all they are versatile dogs.

Contrary to some "experts", they also work to ground.

Get one-you wont be disappointed.

Bilbo does well too...its good to watch as well. He does think everything is his though once it has been flushed and shot or caught...if i find any pics i will post up!

I've got a plummer dog nearly 7yrs of age and is used everday for bushing,he's a bit smaller than most of the pickies you've probably seen of them but has massive preydrive,he will work in the thickest of cover and always finds whatever is there,he is mute on rabbits most of the time,which I don't particularly like,but he does catch quite a few,he is strong on rats, but doesn't like to share anything he kills or catches,the only thing he barks steadilly on is fox,above or below,he is very methodical when working cover so never seems to miss much,I put him over a jrt and bred some cracking pups that hunt just as hard as him but are devils for fighting,they'll fight each other at the drop of a hat if one catches something,they don't do shareing very well,but they are demons on fox in cover (accidental of course)and will hold one on their own till I arrive to despatch it,atb,wirralman

Hows your dog bred?

Have you got any photos of him?

And How tall is he (with you mentioning him being small)?
