The importance of a ferreting dog


Recommended Posts

The only downside is in oxfordshire alot landowners will not let dogmen on there land full stop due to the bad image .

And to be honest I can see there point there not a week goes by on THL where a thread denotes poaching by the thread starter and complain they got rummbled or tyres slashed.

 

So some who say that if they could not take there dogs meant turning down good coney land could be pretty lean for them.

Before I got my lurcher I used to think it would be just an added bonus, but I can't imagine going without her now. It's not the catching bolters that slip the net, it's the marking.....when rabbits

All dogs have a use in ferretting it amazing how a pet dog who is shown the ropes can pick it up marking I always like to have two dogs one for coursing the high speed runners and one purley for holdi

I have to agree with using a dog and it doesnt have to be specialist breed. I have a schnauzer and he has been easy to break to the ferrets and will mark holes reasonably well, that said he aint so good on the bolters (without nets) but you cant fault his effort. I will get a whippet one day and hopefully become a total ferreting dog.

 

what Schnauzer is it mate min / standard / giant??
