allgame 0 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 (edited) i personally like abit of veriation in my hunting giving all my dogs the oppurtunity to see everything, that why i like to both dig down on a fox and have them bolt to the runners (perferably the diggings done in the sand, and the bolting in the clay) what do you like Edited May 14, 2009 by allgame Quote Link to post
wexford Pa 84 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Variation i think! Unexpected adds to the anticipation! And the dogs get the experience of both scenarios.. All in a days hunting! Pa Quote Link to post

Malt 379 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Suppose it depends on why you're doing it. Some lads love the sport of digging, but if it's purely for pest control, I'd have thought a bolter would be preferred. Quote Link to post
Tassa 64 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Good dig in diggable ground is hard to beat. Breaking through to your terrier doing what its bred for is what its all about for me. A quick bolt is dead on late on a sunday evening when the chips are down. Quote Link to post
OldNog 432 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 im suprised how many have voted for a bolt over the other options. I think either is a job well done for the dog Quote Link to post
Liamboy 1,266 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 personally i prefer to dig to my dog every time, that way you no that he has done the business rit til the end. thats just my opinion though Quote Link to post
scent 509 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 dig everytime for me i like to know that my terrier has worked the quarry into a stop end and stays til dug to Quote Link to post
jpnixon 7 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 I prefere to dig to a fox than give him a slip to the dogs, that way ye get the best of both just imo Quote Link to post
