nottzhunter08 898 Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Had a good night with the pup. Finally getting out to decent spots. She caught her first slip pretty much at my feet and she didnt hesitate to to strike well and keep a good hold. The second rabbit she caught a fair distance away at a hedge row and retrieved it well. 3rd rabbit was a straight line sprint between both coney and dog and the rabbit hit the cover woth lass following she ended up witj a bunch of nettles and the rabbits back leg in her mouth anf again held it firmly and change to a comfortable grib and retreived it to within a yard away from me, and the fourth was caught at my feet in the ooen. All rabbits were live and well and I couldnt be more happier with her. Cheers to rew for the drive out. Atb 3 Quote Link to post
