NEWKID 26,157 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Cheers mate... She missed the one that jumped into the hedge... I clapped him on his way, it was some leap for freedom lol 2 Quote Link to post
Truther 1,579 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 This little lass could of been a specialist rabbit dog, all she's missing is 10" of height, more stamina, and bit of recall, other than that she does ok! At least she retrieves rabbits so that's a start! I know we're in the lurcher section, so technically "rabbit specialist" should probably mean a dog that catches rabbits, but i think anything that's runner x base blood that puts rabbits in the bag one way or another qualifies for the name? My little bitch had 8 rabbits in about 6 mooches over a couple of weeks last year, i was over the moon with that, i suppose its all relative to what floats your boat, if that makes sense? 3 Quote Link to post

NEWKID 26,157 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 A specialist in one part of the country might only be average in another. Some dogs just don't get the numbers in front of them because the land they hunt on doesn't hold them. These dogs will have to work hard, use their nose, hunt up to catch (in the day) at night they might only have a couple of runs but catch a small number that some dogs that have lots of game put in front of them might miss. I was out where I live now and my dog catches quite a few. If I take him to where I'm originally from then he's lucky to get a few runs. If I brought one of the lads dogs from up there down here and lamped then they might put my dog to shame!! IMO a specialist would need to be good on any ground but I'm happy for mine to be a specialist on just my and my mates permission!! For a young dog he looked very good last time out mate, had a few to run too!! Quote Link to post
