    Yeah was saying about getting up there with a strimmer.....got a nasty barbed wire fence to get rid of as well that's buried in the cover, the way the dogs fly through the cover the old fence was giving me the horrors so we gave it a miss

    Yeah the nettles are still crazy in places I'm just trying to do the easy spots first, saw a few 1/4 grown ones running about on one of my places today......tbf I've dug to youngsters in December before they never seem to stop now with the mild winters

    Whippets are game lil dogs under rated but you'll not get a better rabbiting dog than a whippet

    That's f****r when we get those wet summers, last year was the same we struggled as they'd had a real shite year, they seem to have done a bit better this year with the dry spring/summer.

    We don't have huge amounts here just pockets of them but enough to keep us ticking over

    Had a look out yesterday cover is still a nightmare good few frosts needed, so the bigger Warren's are a waste of time, we managed 5, lost a few due to the cover but that's how it goes, glad to have the lurcher back after breaking a toe, all in all nice to be out

    Well done mate, nothing beats seeing a young dog click after putting all the time and training into it and finishing on that high is exactly how it's done good luck with the rest of your season

    If it's rock hard could be calloused up mines same atm broke a toe on back foot (was a dropped toe anyway where he went through a tendon) on week 4 of rest now generally broken/knocked toes is 6 weeks of rest up/lead walks.....broke a front toe couple years back just rested him for 6 weeks and never had any issues again

    Dropped rabbits is really for ametures there's nothing good In chasing a confused disorientated rabbit that's just come out of a sack

    Each to there own personally I wouldn't start a dog young you just end up with frustrated yappers most of the time, why rush? People just get too impatient to start a dog when really that dog has to work for you for atleast 8/9 seasons I don't understand why you wouldn't wait until it's physically and mentally ready for work let's face it another 4 months isn't long to wait......I know people will say what difference does 4 months make but think of it this way, if a dog ages 7 years for every one of our years imagine the difference 4 months make mentally

    Probably because she's too young and niave at 8 months wait till she's a year old and walk up on some squatters on the lamp dropped rabbits no good
  15. Moochersways
    Few about in pockets here not loads just enough to keep me ticking along

    Had a look at a new permission today meet landowner and walk around type thing, thought I might as well take some ferrets, lots there and a few big Warren's that I didn't fancy tackling without an extra pair of hands or dog (my dog resting up after an injury) there was 2 bonfire piles in the fields that had Warren's underneath so longnet round them for a quick 5 landowners came and watched they enjoyed it all in all a nice morning out and tapped it up for a few bigger days

    If anyone is after ferret boxes a mate of mine is making them, quality boxes at reasonable prices will make to any size you need, drop me a message and I'll pass on contact details

    There was a post on lurchers and running dogs "dog meds" I believe
  19. Moochersways
    Should be alright normally 6/8weeks and good to go again
  20. Moochersways
    Out ferreting last weekend it's on a dropped toe as well so bit of a weak point
  21. Moochersways
    Good luck mate hope you get a few......it would be a nice night for it here but my dog is out with a broken toe
  22. Moochersways
    Yeah always nice, only downside is my dog caught his toe on the longnet and took a spill......finished early as he was limping on that bit over keen being his first day back but we tapped the place up for a few more days out
  23. Moochersways
    Had a couple hours out this morning on a new bit of ground couple open Warren's for 9.....and farmer next door saw us and gave us permission on his ground aswell productive morning out
  24. Moochersways
    There's a guy on youtube the aussie ferreter ( might be wrong) but he uses them they seem pretty effective
  25. Moochersways
    Just laid over the top of open Warren's like a giant purse net
