Pastures a new

[trigger2 3,511]

Had a call from a mate yesterday askung if a facncied a trip out with him and his pup on some new permission. After a quick check of the local forcast i decide to give it ago. Has luck happened the ground was curcled by a road so it wasnt easy to potentially get lost lol.

His young dogs field craft was good for only 6 and a half months as she navigated the fences and brooks well which was ideal.

Anyway there was plenty of rabbits around but the grass was at a length where they were just squatting and you couldnt see them. We went about the night steady with the dogs catching 16 rabbits but dropped 3 which escapped to run another night/day.

The young dog followed my dog well in the lamp and even caught 2 of the rabbits which my mate was pleased with. Overall a ok night with more hunting to be had another time. 13 out of the 16 hung on the carrier was good enough on new ground.

A massive education for my mates 6 month old pup
