Viewed a few litters, some matings didn’t happen or didn’t take and then finally my luck was in. Like you say, why settle for less. Atb with your search 1 Quote Link to post

Ive dogs of 21 22 and 23 that are more than capable 4 Quote Link to post

Ive dogs of 21 22 and 23 that are more than capable He just doesn’t have to head power and very timid around fox’s ive shown it numerous shot ones and puts its tale between its legs it might prove me wrong but some times you just get that feeling I will try it when it’s on it’s secind season he’s 20 should do a bit more but just not a stocky build they need the weight behind them Quote Link to post
Busher100 703 Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 A dead fox and a live fox is a different thing, you said you are going to keep the dog whatever it can do if I was you I would just exercise few rabbits until 16 months old then show him one daytime you might be surprised worth a go 1 Quote Link to post
