bull101 35 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 i dont need to know the laws on hunting, so how much you get a rat then?.............(rat is not the best meat available aswell by the way) Link to post
Butler 396 Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 You make some rather bold statements about a litter of "PUPS". If they are doing the job in a couple of seasons time then fair play. If you have been around dogs for as long as you say you have then you should know better than to big youngsters up as you can end up with egg on your face. As for them being better than anything you have seen how would they do in the day time tracking with a 100yds start?? Link to post
