Rabbiting man 1,190 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I uses a russell bitch for bushing, ferreting & some ratting. No cover will stop her, she got a good voice, good nose on her shes a fast worker to. Work cover & ferret all day if I let her & she do me. 1 Quote Link to post
Guest long-tail Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) staffie x,never bought him for bushing intentionaly but after getting him out showing him a bit he took to it naturaly,if its in there he find it great nose on him,built like a tank used to open up when on something but doesnt anymore although not to worry you can hear him crashing cover a mile away Edited May 8, 2012 by long-tail Quote Link to post
mattyg 1,862 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 ive got access to a top class bushing bitch, if its in there she will have it out, no matter what it is! i only keep lurchers so she is a great help to me and my useless pack of mutts! she will also stick to any subterrainian task given the chance! thank god for bellman and flint is all i can say.lol exactly the same colour as a fox but without the bushy tail but my lot can tell the difference straight away, but that only comes from years of working together! a valued member of the team and very hard to replace! matt Quote Link to post

j1985 1,983 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 My two little bow legged yappy bramble ninjas!! They both do what they're asked and open up when they've flushed something which is handy as they mainly work bramble so by the time whatevers in there bolts I'm ready to get a slip.
