A Positive mark


Recommended Posts

Out last night for a little stroll over the hills, just seeing what was what and the lurcher found a hole. I've been noticing her nose coming on really well as she's grown and she's marking brambles really well. Her marking as a youngster was a bit vague in so much that you had to be watching her constantly to pick up the little signs. She's become a little more obvious now!

She was chewing the roots around the entrance too so I could only assume it was occupied :lol:

A lot of ferreters see a marking dog as a necessity a bigger attribute than speed and even mouth.The digging at the entrance of an inhabited bury would be frowned upon by some but better any kind of mark than none at all.How old is the bitch.

That's the first time she's done it Kane. I don't do a great deal of ferreting so it's not a problem for me. As soon as she found that bury she growled to make the other dogs understand that it was hers :D

A bit possesive,always a good sign I think even if it it needs curbing,coming along nicely.I expect your being kept busy with the Canadas,now they have been down graded on the shooting list :D .I havent heard from git for a while I know he got rid of the black bitch what about the red dog.

He's not on the computer anymore Kane. He's had a few problems at home which is why you won't have heard from him. He's still got the little red dog though and a few more besides.

 

Since the Canadas have made it to the vermin list, I have hardly seen any. Typical.
