That was the best one I owned he was not a bad dog but not good enough for what I wanted from a dog but the lad I let him go to loved him for ferreting and lamping and the lad lived and worked on a farm with a lot of hares on the land and the dog killed a good few when they jumped up while out ferreting, he wasn’t fast but he had a lot of wind, the lad owned him for years till he died of old age , he still was talking about him last season when I had a few days ferreting with him
