I think people using nite vision has changed the game to you can hit big numbers with nite vision and rabbits don’t even no your there it’s a massive shame used to have huge numbers and it look like they were making a come back this year but towards end of July just seemed to of vanished
-
Well went for a shine tonight mainly to see what the numbers were like on my permission. Out for 3 hrs not the best conditions bit light and wet but all in all seen 2 rabbits and 2 Billy’s which I wouldn’t even entertain with my bitch. Used to be loads of rabbits around mid wales not anymore disheartening is the only thing I can say and hard to get your dog in shape and top of there game when you don’t see nothing. Anybody else seeing a huge decline in numbers around there permission

Well took a big leap of faith with my bitch having such a good collie grey for marking and ferreting all round really had my heart set out for another one. Whilst looking for one I came across a beddy whippet greyhound and after reading up about the x I thought I’d have ago. After many choice words, tantrums and hard work she really is proving to be a top notch dog marking is second to none catching bolting rabbits obedience and mostly her heart what a dog so happy everything paid off and if any ferreting man is looking for a hard working dog with brilliant Capabilities Don’t over look a bedl

Well after all the hard work and challenges training it’s finally paid off took my pup out today ferreting, nice cold morning bit of frost lack of rabbits have made it hard to get the dog around any rabbits but this morning I got her on a nice little warren 6 holes and bolted 2 in the nets dog covered the nets nicely so I thought I’d leave a net off and if one bolted she could run it and I sat her down and within a few moments could hear bumping the dogs ears were pinned up and just as that rabbit bolted the dog was there and snapped it up straight out the hole brought it back live and release

Thanks for the reply mate! She retrieved we’ll day and night I’ve done basics sit stay recall all bang on point now with her can get her to sit stay.throw a dummy and then send her out for it had her out ferreting but due to rabbit population not seen a lot! I’ve tried throwing it short but she can see the dummy so she’s not really using the beam I can throw one out on field walk away with her and then put the lamp on it and she won’t look down beam even walk right up to it and she’s looking everywhere bar the beam it’s frustrating maybe if she seen a rabbit on the move or dummy on move the pe
