Popular Post fred90 3,210 Posted October 25 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 25 mooching in the afternoon mist, dog's working the hedgerow, across the dyke there is a row of trees amongst nettles, brambles, ground quite boggy, I was scanning the trees looking for a shot at woodies with the catapult when I saw this chap about 4 feet off the ground, I thought is he dead or asleep, a big dog fox he never moved until I said now then are you asleep, he lifted his head looked at me for a couple of seconds then he was down and off through the brambles. 20 1 Quote Link to post
terryd 8,404 Posted October 25 Report Share Posted October 25 I noticed they don’t half sleep well. Especially in the summer often catch them napping in the rough grass. The old dog gave one or two a rather rude awakening. Felt bit sorry for them dozing away in the sun and next it’s all going badly wrong. Clocked one this year sleeping out on the edge of a field. Saw it a mile away and popped bitch on a lead . Walked right up to it and it was only when I circled up wind it woke up. does your whippet keep close Fred or will it get its nose down and go ?
