what size has he come up

Hes big mate. Not measured him but at a guess 18"-20" and 40lb.

 

My Plummer is pretty small so he looks a giant next to her. This is next to my 24" lurcher...

We reckon he will do a job mate. Will stick up a few posts over winter so people can see how he's getting on.

 

He might take some hammer off the bramble but saying that my Plummer takes some stick after a few hours in the tight bramble but never seems to phase her.

The tips of the ears always seems to be where my bitch takes some stick as well. Once they start shaking their head a few times it gets all over the place but usually looks worse than it really is. This bitch of mine is my first busher so I've got nothing to compare her to, but I would imagine that even something with a good thick coat would still rip the ear tips as the skin there's so soft and thin. What do you guys with spaniel and wirehaired types find?

[day and night walker 233]

I find that my one tends to get less scratched up summer bushing as opposed to winter but summer bushing is much harder on them stamina wise due to it being that much thicker, mind you winter or summer that blackthorn can be hellish on them.

[krawnden 1,036]

Summer bushing also harder stamina wise as the temperature's so much higher. If I'm doing garden rabbiting jobs in the summer I have to make sure I stop regularly to let the busher cool down - if I didn't force her to stop she'd just keep going regardless and be in real danger of overheating.

My dogs got a really thick coat and skin he's like a badger lol he used to get marked up when he was younger but I think his ears have toughened up there's was a wasp sitting on his neck other day Trying to sting him but it couldn't brake threw
