A go to ground / false den, with a caged animal would be illegal in GB. And the outcome would be a jail sentence. You have more freedom in the USA hunting wise. But even if I lived there would not e

Yes guys I know, and I do apologize for my mistake..I'm gonna have to figure out how to post pics today and I will show you my dogs. The go to ground I have might have to wait because it just snowed here..but I will take off the tops so you can get the idea..I put it in the ground...I just showed my 2 pups a med rat last night. My female seemed confused of what to do, still to young I believe..so I let my male pup take a look and he jumped right in and did what he had to do..then I let the female in on it and she got hint...I'm gonna wait a few days and let them tease on it in a roll cage and try it again...if all goes well, I'll start to hide it a little bit and see how that goes..

Hello rippem, welcome, I laughed when I read that your wife goes digging with you, my Mrs wouldn't dare risk chipping a nail or getting her ugg boots dirty, we have a very different idea of fun.

How many lads on here bring their Mrs off for a romantic dig on a Sunday morning?
