owen12345 43 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Great job you done there mate nice one Quote Link to post
Minkenry 1,044 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Great job you done there mate, but guy int pub said be very careful, that mink does that to wrong dog and its gonna end up a scarf Yeah, I'll be working with him on that one. Attacking dogs when you only weigh 3 lbs is NOT a good habit to have! 3 Quote Link to post
pie-eater 377 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 That's some serious progress from day one. Felt a bit sorry for the dog lol. Quote Link to post
Minkenry 1,044 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) That's some serious progress from day one. Felt a bit sorry for the dog lol. Yeah, Carl's use to that crap. When he's not hunting with our mink, my buddy uses Carl to hunt raccoons and wild cat. So getting bit is just a normal part of life for him. A 22 lbs raccoon does a lot more damage than a little 3 lbs mink! This is my buddy Cade with his dog Carl and a 22.5 lb raccoon he killed without the help of any other dogs.

He'll get bored of chasing the dog, once he has some more success with real game. Quote Link to post
rabbit demon 302 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 brilliant videos and brilliant stuff your doing with them mink. iv a big hob ferret that done the exact same to my wee terrier but he doesnt do it to my lurcher, cause she doesnt take his crap off him. Id love to get a mink but at the moment dont have the time to train one and its illegal to keep them here without a licence. have you had much success training wild ones? Keep up the good work ☺.

Yeah, the wild ones can be trained too. Sometimes they are actually easier to train, since they know the value of food. It just depends on the mink you happen to be working with. 1 Quote Link to post

Once again minky you have done a great job keep it up Actually, it's funny that you should say that. Washushe has been on 2 more hunts since we filmed this video, and during the hunt today he completely ignored the dog, and focused on killing the rabbits like we wanted him to! I knew he would figure it out eventually, but I really didn't expect him to start ignoring the dog this easily! Quote Link to post
rabbit demon 302 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 does he bring the rabbits out the burrows and put them in the carrier for you once hes caught them ?. Quote Link to post
