i've got a russell pup who i want to do a bit of rabbitting with . what kit/tools do you take with you ? i'm thinking a hold all with fold up spade , small bar , locator , maybe some sort of small saw for roots ? , water , ? any replies would be appreciated

[Guest mucker]

ferrets would be a good start scouse :11: id only use your pup for flushing stuff out of cover a bit of marking but you dont want it disapearing down rabbit holes .

do away with the fold up spade get a proper one.

theres one or two lads on here from what i can gather use terriers along side the ferrets for rabbiting.

but they only mark bush and wait around the nets for a bolt..

they would be discouraged entering any rabbit holes from day 1.

your first post read like you were thinking of using a terrier for a ferrets job,you,ll be digging to a dead dog sooner or later or losing it.

dont see how you can hunt rabbits with a spade and a terrier.

maybe i worded it wrong .never once said i intend to use the dog as a ferret !!!! i dont intend encouraging the dog to enter a rabbit hole either . tools question was just about finding what people take . cheers .
