s.e.s.k.u 1,893 Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 had 2 early finishes from work this week so headed out with Gwen my lurcher and border terrier ....mates got 3 russells so we hit the hedgerows, dykes just local . terriers seemed to be on fire as they worked the thick cover plenty rabbits about but not bolting really but great to watch and to see the reaction of Gwen following the terriers up and down the cover. She isn't shy on getting stuck in either ..behaved really well and is putting herself in the right places . didn't take the camera out but took a couple with the phone and then a pic when we got home today...just managed the one that the terriers got but it will do for dog food eh ha ha thanks for looking atb sesku 1 Quote Link to post

Nice to have one for the pot though..... totally agree Colin ...hard work for the terriers but my mates russell x plummer always seems to nail 1 or 2 in cover , she never lets him down . Gwen got a good nose aswell ..she marks up and finds anything dead before rolling in it and fetching it to me ...half eaten rats, stoat , hedgehog rabbit ...iv had em all lol .She nearly copped a pheasant today ah well she'll get a few in future im sure ...
