I enjoy bushing with terriers..but it isnt when they go to ground and your not ready for it.

buy a locator collar or keep away from land they may have an earth/drain

 

YOU BOYOS WANT TO RE - READ WHAT BBB HAS WRITTEN ...... AINT THAT THE TRUTH !!!

 

SPRINGERS WOULD BE MY CHOICE ......

 

BEAGLES ARE AS FECKIN NIGHTMARE ..... THEY CAN HUNT BUT IT AINT EASY STOPPING THEM .... AND THATS A MAJOR FACTOR IN THE GAME

I've used plummer's and russell's for a long time now and find they hunt very well,they miss nothing and will work all day,some day's the terrier's kill more than the guns,I agree that knowing the ground you hunt is very important as well as your individual dogs that make up your team,some open up when close and some only need a sniff to set them off(barking),other's can be silent killer's,but one things for sure its very good sport and takes a bit of beating for excitement,atb,wirralman

yep i agree i own 3 plummers and am looking after me mates dog which is litter brother to my young dog 9month old ive had them out bushing the last few days and just watching them work a line in and out of cover is very nice to watch the chance of them catching a bunny on this patch is slim until winter as its very dense at the moment the 2 adults are bringing the the pups on leaps and bounds i shot over them during the winter had rabbits hare fox with them they have flushed deer on my mates land with the 2 older dog standing on there back legs senting the air its the only time they really give tongue when the deer are about the land owner loves to watch the terriers he laughs saying he,s getting rid of his 2 cockers and his springer these 3 dog are fantastic and the 2 yong plummers are starting to copy some of the spanial action role on next season
