whippet 99 2,613 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 decided to take a wee walk round a permission maybe half an hour away to check out how much cover was still there with a view to a ferreting trip next week. half way through the woods the mutts have picked up a couple of bunnies and a chap with a gundog comes walking toward me, i recognise him through work (i'm in the ambulance service) he's a police sergeant, we chat a while his dog sitting at heel my two are working through a hazel thicket.............crash bang a roe buck breaks cover with two hairy lurchers in CLOSE pursuit, fck me! i hope its gonna make the thick cover maybe 25yds away, belle dives in for a leg hold misstimes her strike and takes a kick, the roe stumbles and as it makes cover jazz hits it on the shoulder rolling the pair into really thick brambles, all the while i'm bricking it, about 30seconds of crashing through the thickest of cover and i'm waiting on a scream trying to act cool saying things like 'they're only rabbit dogs they'll never get that' and 'i've never seen a deer here before'...........thankfully the mutts come back tails wagging sides heaving....me..' i told you they wouldn't get it' cool as........he says ' pity that i quite like a bit o venison'.......b*****d! fooking quality mate.............oh by feck I know what all that's like..........
