sad ending to what would of been a promising young dog poacher,the main thing is you tried, relentlessly by the looks of things,reminds me of a dig we,??well i say we ,my dad and his pals dug to a red lakeland type we had when i was 17(there abouts)3 days and nights we dug for the dog ,over 27ft,successful outcome though,like you said poacher if your prepared to put your dog to ground the you gotta be prepared to dig him/her out...atb poacher....darrell. :thumbs:

sorry to here about your dog mate, just out of curiosity, how did the dog die? exhaustion? fatal wound? that is one of the reasons why i dont let my dog off the lead really out in the fields, he would go down anything!

my hardest dig was 16 foot into a railway bank that was all shaell in a place i was not meant to be in we started a 9 oclock in morning and finished at 2 o clock the next morning .but one good thing about it was i was out trying my glen of imal x patterdale bitch that stock with her quarry until we got to her .we had dug this earth a few times before but we always got to dig out in the field with a dig of about 4 or 5 feet but i will never go back to it again

Good bitch entered in a tough spot I dug all day and most of the night listening to her crys till they faded away. I came to a impass that could not go on futher without machines. The land owner {state of N,J.} would not give permission after two days of solid work. I had to pack up and walk away that was very hard.
