ratting with three brothers
phil wright replied to phil wright's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
it was this afternoon but cheers mate.id guess it took as long to get there as it did to catch the rats.i wish i had that sort of hunting every week. total was 55.i think there could have been a couple more buried as we moved stuff about.either way i dont think ive ever killed as many rats in such a short time. -
i went ratting with a couple of mates and their terriers.the dogs are all litter brothers.it took about an hour to take this lot.

it was wild longslip,we caught a few more rabbits than in the pic but i lost them off the game carriers.it was hard just to keep walking. ill try and answer a few of your questions luke. i like the cross for the ground i run dogs on.they have good feet and stamina as a rule.i like to go ratting and pre ban did a bit with the terriers and the gwp crosses ive seen have done ok at those sports aswell. i had trouble bringing up my bitch but i think she was a one-off,i dont forsee any problems training/stockbreaking these pups and people i know who also have the cross have had no problems
-
cheers lads,the pups are gwp/greyhound x gwp greyhound. mines the one looking at the camera,the good looking one on the right is Reeds.

dont all ferreting dogs catch their rabbits without fuss and get ready for the next one?

i saw my first munty two weeks ago in county durham whilst travelling to my permission which is a bit further north.it was standing at the side of the road beside a plantation. it was a pleasant suprise before we started lamping.

my dogs are jabbed and kill a rat or two on an almost daily basis.ive never known of a terrier which was jabbed as a pup getting weils but maybe it can happen.
