It all depends on the dog when it comes too spaniels me and some friends keep the same line of cockers and they will bush any thing out of thick stuff and surprise every one on stuff that bites back yet my girlfriend has a line of 2 springers that are both good at everything but foxes depends on how there brought on I'd say cos any spaniel will hunt anything u train them too and all can be used as gun dogs but it is handy too have a dog that will give voice while working with lurchers we used too have a little jrt that died that was far better if all ur doing is bushing too lurchers but usele

I can only give my experience with dogs in house training some dogs take alot longer then others is what I'll point out I had 1 lab that had too leave the garden too take a piss and my lurchers got the jist of things in 2 weeks a cocker that took a week and 2 patxlakie are now 3 month old and for no god amount of praise made a dif and water pistols I used never made a dif they are the most stubborn little gits I've ever met so now they are in kennels so I don't no if it's a patterdale thing but I'd try some odour removers and what kind of diet is it on cos I did find if on biscuits they drank

LAMPING DOGS FROM VEHICLES VS LAMPING DOGS ON FOOT
BIGLURKS replied to trigger2's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
I think some folk have the wrong idea with what way some folk lamp from a 4x4 cos the dogs run along the side of the car in a sense ur not dropping the dogs off as soon as u see a bunny cos u will be getting dogs in and out of the car all night long and I can see why some folk don't like the idea off it from the tales I've read on here were folk are cutting fences and wrecking fields and smashing gates which for the life of I can not understand why u would have too cut a fence too lamp but I can see why there is a negative view but if there was any damage done while I was lamping I know I woul -

BIGLURKS replied to trigger2's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
