wexford Pa 84 Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Got new permission this weekend and thought we'd take we'd take the dogs for a mouch on Saturday to get the lay of the land.. We seen that most of the land was sow down with corn.. So decided to try my 11 month old bitch on the lamp that night.. It was to be her first night out on her own and her first real night as i had brought her out at 9 months old wit another bitch to give her the idea.. The night started off bad as she over ran the 1st one and missed and 2nd as she failed to pick jst before it hit the ditch, but the 3rd she made no mistake, i spotted a rabbit squattin 30 yards away so i kept the beam on him n walked quietly up and told Lil to 'watch up!'.. With ears cocked she watched the spot and the rabbit took off headin for the ditch at speed with Lil in pursuit, at last second Lil turns him away from the ditch and bang, 1st solo catch under the lamp and retrieves back to hand with the bunny still kickin.. Turned out to be a good night as we bagged 8 out of 10 and i came home a happy man and Lil a happy dog.. Heres a few pics of her that day.. Quote Link to post

skycat 6,173 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 She looks like a much lighter built version of my GSD cross Grey: similar head, but longer in the leg and finer all round: nice bitch you have there. Quote Link to post
