johnrussell84 2,881 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Well after dropping the kids at school, I don't start work till 3 today my young lurcher has nicked her leg so thought Al get the oldies out an the russell. Parked up an it was approaching 20degrees ???. Anyways walked up a huge valley with a lot off sheep and although there were signs off fox none about was hoping just a little mooch an back home. I crossed the burn and headed for the car thinking too warm today dogs when the russell done his magic trick. Now never for a second did I think I will find him at ground but after 20 mins waiting I said to the old dogs we can eliminate the holes anyways as i walked the tree line the bellman went 62m I followed it down an as I approached could hear him whining and digging. Am still looking at this little sett as I stuck a dozen bunnies down it last year thinking not fox surely and he doesn't go to bunnies?. Now I never had my digging stuff with the heat and only lifted my wee mini ferreting spade just for piece of mind☺️, anyways found him at 0.8 broke thru to him digging between two feckers of roots. Lifted him to move roots when the old Wheaton decided she'd like a look and with a few whines an persistent staring i knew not far away then. Opened the hole up a little more an the Wheaton x went to her tail obviously further than I thought so let Zak go he flew right up the tube an straight to work. And after a short time he was lifted and fox humanely dispatched. I was standing thinking what is going on with nature along with how much would I get slated of my old mate digging with this little thing ???. Anyways all is good now and that's the season of to a start good luck one and all 7 Quote Link to post
