Malt 379 Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) Mine does OK on the lamp, but he's one of the taller ones. (22") Haven't had big bags because of the ground he's been run on up until know, but he's had as many as other types have had there. Mine: My mate's beddy/whippet/grey: My mate's dog is faster as you'd expect, but mine has a faster recovery time between runs. Edited August 7, 2010 by maltenby Quote Link to post

Malt 379 Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Mine doesn't mind it, he loves it outside. If the kitchen door is open, he's outside lying in the garden 90% of the time, even if it's pissing down with rain! Quote Link to post

Still fast enough for rabbits though, and my mate used to use his (pre ban) doubled up with a Bull x for charlie. The fields are on the small side where he used to work them, with loads of hedges. The smaller dog used to get to charlie first and turn them away from the hedges, straight into the path of the oncoming wrecking machine! Quote Link to post
bryson 562 Posted August 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 nice one mate missed bazil to many times (pre ban) on the small fields always needing an extra 5 meters running now a hope to change this Quote Link to post
