With a little help

[Str 793]

My cocker caught his first clean rabbit this aft with a little help from a stoat I think,we had worked a hedge down pushing a few pheasants out and both dogs showed some interest in a rabbit set but I don’t have the dogs digging in holes I move straight on,we had walked another 100 yards when I could just hear a rabbit squeal  but I couldn’t tell were it was coming from but the cocker could he ran straight to the set and in the hedge coming straight back with a rabbit alive,on inspection there was the tell tale puncture marks on the back of the neck  and a small amount of blood ,a stoat I would say,either way it’s done my cockers confidence some good.
