Dewclaw69 484 Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 went out tonight about 10 and really made a bad decision. looked great about 8 with a strong wind, light rain and it felt cold. got on the permission and it felt warm and the rain and wind had eased off. 2 early slips and the rabbits were away . 3rd slip the dog really made up for it and had 1. last slip the rabbit really worked the dog and i thought it would make it through the galvanised field gate. it didn't quite and buck nipped it back from the other side of the gate. think he's getting a bit hard mouthed. they were both alive when retrieved but they were both squealing, or maybe he just aint striking right and picking em up a bit awkward. when he does pick up squealers it puts him about too and he seems to bugger about fetching em back. he's still young and in my mind he has a long way to go but doing ok.
