    Sounds like you are just the right fella to give the dog a chance. Patience and a permanent home will probably be all it needs to be a fabulous worker. Can't believe that it has been given up on twice in such a short working life

    Hunting MAMMALS with dogs is illegal unless described in the exceptions. Unless you put big ears and a fluffy tail on your boar and get the lurcher to bring it to hand whilst still alive, I can't see any loopholes

I would say that you need to take the time to have absolute confidence in your dog's obedience - this is a 2 way street, if you are anxious the dog will be too.

    went to the Burliegh Game fair, not too far away from us. Good set up not too expensive on the gate, we rather enjoyed it. I even entered my pup in the U12 months class, first time showing I don't know who looked most like they didn't know what they were doing - me or the dog
