The folks here in the US which I know that hunt regularly don't hunt with dogs like PB's. The only time I'll plead with my dog to get out of the hole is if it's on skunk. I've only had one out of three that will do that. She's the bayer of the bunch.

Legal hunting around here is May - March ~~ on most of our quarry.

First day we found just a possum and skunk. We used the possum to school a young pup, it was a good spot for that. Saturday we walked for miles it seems and only found a 12 ft earth with a dog in for about an hour before coming out, never getting up to anything. Sunday we visited a farm we haven't been all summer, it made up for the day before. The farmer said a huge brushpile was busy with quarry so we put a dog in and he was soon working a raccoon. Not much we could do but wait. It bolted after about an hour right past a young dog tied out. We let the young one off and

Great pics and story, thoroughly enjoyed. I sure like Slag. She was the first lurcher I had the pleasure to watch work. Nice stuff, Wooly

Great Day Bshadle, something I wish we had all the time

Nice account and great pictures haggler. Sure was well worth the trip

well, I guess I have to add my dog, lol After a days work

Met up with a couple of friends and headed out to check a new farm and visit an old one. First stop was the dairy, we had no luck in the fields so we headed to an outbuilding behind this old house. Tyke wasted no time finding something good. We found a sandbag in his way which was left by the farmer. Tyke worked a very tight tube but couldn't get far. I looked over the other side of the feed bin and saw a very small groundhog stick it's head out. We quickly decided to leave this place alone and let the young ones be until next time. We loaded up to head

Congrats Bill, you and Dot did great, I don't think you have to change a thing

Talked to the wife just a moment ago and Kye is still here, LOL. No tornadoes near them. They got rid of their long distance, too expensive for how often they were using. No answering machine set up, but she will tell him to call you soon. Regards Wooly

Great pictures

I've got no problem with that thought process. Remember possums sull up and play dead when provoked. Some give a fight, some don't. So if it's not fighting back and the terrier drags it out, where's the damage going to come from? Then they are easily pulled out without much a fight. The bitch was young and her first time in the ground. Lots of variables involved with possums, Is this more to your liking?

There's British blood in all of them over here, LOL I don't look much into pedigrees, what I do know is his parents work, grandparents, etc. Here's the UK portion of what's behind the dog in the last picture, 4 generations back Foxwarren, Meynell, Queslett, Beacon, Savermake Yes, possums bite back, but not as bad as raccoon and groundhogs

We had a really nice day yesterday with great weather. We met up for breakfast then headed out. My friend’s new little 7 mo old bitch looks like she'll be a nice little dog for our areas. She's replacing a bitch she just lost at the young age of 6, who sure is missed. We located a possum on a hillside. It’s the first time I’ve heard something in the ground growling at us before the dog even went in. That was wild. My friend’s 11 mo old bitch crept in out of sight and started to bay. We waited to make sure she’d settle and started to dig. We got down abou

I made the mistake of dispatching with a pistol in one hand and my little bitch under my other arm. She's now shy of them but not to the point of running off, just keeping her distance. It was away from the dig (quarry had bolted) so she doesn't connect going to ground with the handgun. I've seen plenty of russells that it doesn't bother at pretty close range Wooly
