krawnden 1,036 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Ive never really been into terriers but after seeing Krawndens pup in the flesh a couple of times i'd take her home in an instant. Not had the pleasure of seeing her out bushing yet hint hint??!! But seeing her at home very calm & biddable pup. Credit to both breeder & owner Nothing like as calm out in the field mate As soon as your crippled knee's all fixed we'll get out... Quote Link to post
Richnew 38 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 That's a fine trio of bushers Willow atb Flacko Cheers flacko can't wait to see how he turns out he's got a nose on him already i don't think I've seen him with it up yet on walks, I'm going to get some training into him now before I take him anywhere were there's any game about get him round some stock, introduce him to Mr rat then get him into some heavy sented ground and fingers crossed he'll start putting thing up for lurchers Quote Link to post

I know what you mean mate my old dog was the same loved to do the beating rather than the standing waiting... like the idea of a collie x over her, should add that bit of brains to think ahead and get in the right spot to intercept, good luck anyway matey Quote Link to post
krawnden 1,036 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Even if the lurcher's on the outside of the cover it frequently doesn't go to plan, at least not with mine anyhow. Often the rabbit bolts the other side of the hedge/bramble clump from where the lurcher is and he either physically can't reach it, or by the time he's got where he should have been it's too late. Plus, of course, there are quite a few times when he never even sees it. But when it all comes together it's poetry in motion 1 Quote Link to post
spindolero 1,109 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 My heart would be in my mouth working that close to a busy road, you must have good control over them Quote Link to post
wi11ow 2,657 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) i work the banks of the roads ferreting along them is good but as you no they must listen shes just coursing bred but good to watch on the lamp Edited February 25, 2015 by wi11ow 1 Quote Link to post
