Not being funny, but what would you expect to happen when taking a daytime dog out on the lamp? It's not going to be as good as a whippet who knows the score when lamping?

DottyDoo 500 Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 seen pure whippets work daytime rabbits,very good at there job,but get them on the lamp and there piss poor,best daytime rabbit dog ive seen is a mates 3/4 grey 1/4 whippet,some dog and handy on the lamp. i agree, they good dogs for ferreting an a bit of bushing, but as lamp dogs they are piss poor, unless all yer pemrission is either uphill fields or golf course, they aint big enuff to be called a lamp dog by anyone who is serious about this pastime but again if i was to go buy a dog used solely for daytime bunnies, i think id have a whippet(again) Link to post

Not being funny, but what would you expect to happen when taking a daytime dog out on the lamp? It's not going to be as good as a whippet who knows the score when lamping? no way are you for real malt so what ye saying is a dog cannot both do daytime an work a lamp, cos i beg to differ i have owned a few dogs of various breeds an crosses an most a them could Link to post

Cheers. dont agree chart, seen some nice whippets do some good days hunting where the humble bunnys is concerned an seen the very same dog fail miserably on the lamp ye see when a rabbit bolts the dog is often not far away, due to standing on the bury but at night asking a whippet to see a bunny which is 100 yads down a beam an sitting tight in moorland is a bit of a push, by anyones standards i should think imho whippets are the ideal dog for the beginer/part timer/daytime bunny man however if lamping is your game, even only bunnys as that is all thats legal these days, then ye need something with a bit more hight than a whippet.... get down to a whippets eye level an see how far you can see Link to post

Ideation 8,216 Posted September 23, 2010 Report Share Posted September 23, 2010 Whippets piss poor on the lamp. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Get f*****g real. Add beddy to it and its suddenly a cracking lamp dog is it? But a pure whippet is shit? f**k knows what you have been seeing, but maybe it was the owners that were shit. Go speak to Mike Brown and go out for a night lamping with him and then see what your saying about lamping whippets. P.S Dotty - you make a fair point about the height but i've never seen it stop them. Link to post
