Guest Dillon Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Two lads, one of which I have dug with got collared at weekend on a well known spot. I have dug this place and it is right out in the open, to be honest you wouldn't go there these days. They got a Bull x confiscated a beddy x and a black terrier all by the RSPCA Lurcher had run a fox to ground, terrier killed it, came out after half an hours digging. Old bill and RSPCA were waiting and immediately cuffed both lads and loaded them up. Now they spent 48 hrs in the cells (for a fox !!!) and when they got out the desk sargeant said the dogs would have to be checked out fully before they could be charged. He didn't have permission there were no game birds and he had no shotgun with him. The old bill went back and dug further where he had started but found nothing. Careful lads, he was foxing but I can see this getting turned around on him by the Police and RSPCA. D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RobW71 Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Prehaps, if they didn't find owt the Terrier never killed and Charlie went on his way after they'd gone, or was it a proper hot spot in which case they could be in trouble. A chap up this way got caught like that, I'll ask him of the outcome but I know he got his Terriers back. I strictly stay on permission (ish) and always carry nets and gun. There's to many busybodies crawling over the land nowadays, I'm glad my digging days are comming to an end. There's other ways :ph34r: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dillon Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 It was a 3/4 grown that they ran to ground, and the dog that was entered I have seen, he kills more than he lets free, the dog came out with no marks on him but blood and fur around his mouth, in saying that it is a hot spot and in my opinion you would only go there if you wanted a nick. A pal of mine got done a good few years back , he had dug and let go a vixen in cub, he ended up with his best dog taken off him never to be returned and shafted with a seven yr dog ban, they obviously, as they always do said he was up to something else, and since that day the little scrat hole at the top of a huge hill has been registered as a sett, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
