  7. With subsonic cartridges I find mine very quiet compared to a normal gun instead of a boom you get some sort of whistle popping noise hard to explain. With normal cartridges you still get a boom but maybe slightly sub dued and doesnt carry so far.

  21. I had a rabbit today it was bit tough to skin so I decided to give it to the ferrets. When I skinned it I did notice a small red pimple on its belly under the skin other than that it looked healthy but as I went to cut the back leg of there was a big squirt of fluid and white eggs every where. What bothers me is I didn't notice it until I cut into it so I could have used it for the table. I have a rabbit bubbling away in the oven now but its to be tough going when I eat it latter bit put off at the moment should of had bacon,egg and chips with the mrs
  22. I have been using the gundog whistle on our cocker who is 7 and he is a hundred percent in the house and gets a reward when he comes. I have started to use it when we are out and about also but not over doing it and so far he has just swung round and come straight back. I think the whistle helps obvisouly to take the emotion out of your voice which he tends to just blank when we are out because he senses my frustation other wise. I will phase out the treats eventually
  23. Doesnt have to be an earth dog be a working terrier. A working terrier is one that does what ever you need out of it. If that is going to ground on foxes, marking rabbits or fetching shot pigeons as long as your happy with it thats the main thing. A good ferreting dog is not to be under estimated. A good ferreting dog should flush rabbits toground even if it means tracking across 4 fields like a little hound. It should then mark silently with out digging and going to ground or yapping. When the ferret is down it should stay to the side of a hole not stand in front of it. I liked mine to pin
  24. Looks a nice ferret he don't look bad in that picture either
