macker 5 Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 got two handy digs today the first was in a wood with about ten or more holes my young lurcher did very well following my terrier as it backed a big fox to a stop end left my phone in the car some thing i always leave behind. decided we would try get another for my friends young pickaxe bitch. had my own terrier doing the cover and he found an earth but way very tight. i knew by my own dog it was holding and looked nice and shallow perfect for a pup . entered the bitch and half an hour later dug her out in grips with back end of fox. it was the first time for the lurcher to pull and did very well for me. http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/9944/chockim6.jpg http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/1531/shepad9.jpg Quote Link to post

macker 5 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 not sure spindolero he used to be on here a fair bit. only my him the once at a show in wales when friends where collecting two pups from him the other dog is flying and have had three or four proper digs with him i have heard.caught and killed a fox in cover one of his first times out. so the lads are more than pleased.have a decent bite even the bitch has a surprising hard bite on her for her size . all the best macker Quote Link to post
