johnbhoy 1 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) a made a thread up a few days ago about my dog being ready. made the decision lastnite to take it out. went out with my friend and his experienced lurcher. we were going to run them together but ended up just letting my dog run on its own. first few rabbits it gave them a good chase and nearly had them. moved on to the next park and i walk up on a clamped rabbit, stayed about 10 yards away from the rabbit till it got up then slipped the dog. dog gave it a right good chase and took it and retreived it back live. the second rabbit it got the rabbit turned it inside it out but the dog managed to get bk on it and nipped at the fence. went home a happy man thinking i made the right decision atb john Edited October 6, 2009 by johnbhoy Quote Link to post
