My pal has a yorkie and norfolk terrier and puts them down a warren like ferrets. Its in all dogs somewhere, just takes longer to find and train in some than in others due to their history (ie kc and showponies etc). good luck with the crosses Quote Link to post

Seeing as its not a lie, then it can't be 'complete shite'. Anyway, you mustn't over-interpret any post on here, just read it for what it is: I didn't say the dogs kill rabbits (like ferrets sometimes do), or shred them to ribbons (like a bull cross can), or gallop across the glen after them (like a grey or saluki), I just stated what he did: He uses them to move rabbits from the warren. You might not understand it but you can actually 'train' dogs if you know what you are doing , rather than 'point them' at quarry. Have a guess what's waiting for the rabbits when they emerge.... 3 Quote Link to post

woodard 32 Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 ffs whats become of this site 1 Quote Link to post
stevemac 415 Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Well I recon you could end up with one of 2 things or one of each. 1 a foxhound type that stays in a patch of cover and quarters all day never missing a leaf. or a cocker that runs a line straight out of the woods and far away. always a risk crossing dogs of different hunting styles hopefully he will get the type he wants.

"Its in all dogs somewhere, just takes longer to find and train in some than in others due to their history (ie kc and showponies etc). good luck with the crosses " complete shite and if you want it your way, a lie to. you cannot train "all" dogs to hunt like a hound, or go to ground, or to catch live quarry or even some to rag a dead mouse. ive heard you spout this before on here, giving your mate as reference, all i can say is the standards must be very low in your mind. people haven't selectively bred hunting hounds for hundreds years when they could in your mind just used a pedigree chum! 1 Quote Link to post
