JAE B 552 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 It has been real busy the last few months... We took the mole trapping contract on a large sporting estate,..it has paid extremely well and kept the wolf from the door. The downside, is that most of the pastures and grass fields are part and parcel of a commercial pheasant shooting enterprise...The area is also lifting with roe and muntjac deer... So,..ruling is,.no dogs on, until the shooting is done and dusted. With that in mind, I decided on a day off and to have a mouching trip into the next county. After a short journey,..I arrived at Sirius rabbiting ground, and armed with a brace of ferrets and a stop net,..we were soon into one or two rabbits... My main reason for my visit, was to see how Ianto, the dog pup off our Dusty had turned out. The dog was a credit to its owner,..lean and mean,...just like my old style cur dogs... Plenty of sense, a good hunter and a great mouth, with a cobra-like strike.... Full marks to Sirius, for getting the youngster into such splendid physical condition.. I often look back on the litters of lurchers that I have bred over the years,...some have been definite success stories and other efforts,... not quite so worthwhile.. It is always a gamble with crossbred curs,..things can go either way and frequently do An even bigger gamble, is in finding, good permanent, knowledgeable homes for pups... For me, this is the most important criteria.... I know too well,...that the type of mouching, ferreting, marking up, style of mutt that I try to create, is never going to make a world beater,. and any future owner has to be fully aware of this fact... So,..it is comforting,.... when things turn out nice... My thanks to Sirius for his generous offer of a walk out,...much appreciated mate... All the best, Phil. tidy dog Phil looks well . How's he bred ? Quote Link to post
