the sire of my pup is this cross,hes already hunting up and marking burrows,hes only five months so it will be a while yet before i let him do any lamping,but hes coming on well mooching about the bushes with the older dog,plenty of brains and very obedient for his age.will do rabbits no bother in another 3 or 4 months,already had a few kills off the ferrets and retrieved to hand,bit reluctant to let it go,but that will come.
