Bull whippit

[hunt and fish 35]

I am not that long into the game, have always went out with mates for a long time lamping and ferreting with there lurchers. Recently just bought a we bull whippit cracker we dog. Started her of catching bolted rabbits while ferreting and done well, hes caught a few on the lamp to just getting used to the lamp now. He is just turned 13 months. Everyone i go out with keep lurchers none of them have whippits but i decided to start with a whippit as they are cracker for rabbits..whats your opinions on using them for foxes? Hes a game we dog.

is it illegal to hunt fox with dogs in uk, i thought all the stuff on the news for past 5 years was just a cunning stunt to put folk off

however in n.i its ok, but not with a midget dog consistently

hi

i had a frst cross about 23tts (15 years ago )he did his job well , he only had rabbits in his first season but at approximately 2 years old he was switched to charlie and did the job well, he lacked a little in speed but made up for it in bravery and determination. he worked well with my 3/4 greyhound whippet who had all the speed, reasonable stamina but little else.

Cheers mate. Hes quickest we dog i have seen is going to make a great rabbit dog. Hes very game and still young still a bit of growing to do but has filled out well. Will post how he does if he gets put into charlie with pictures.

Mate of mine had a full whippet that would do fox any time it had the chance. Took some stick from them because of its size but never came off it until it finished it.

So can't see what harm a bit of bull is going to do. Maybe make it more gamer and pack a bit more power probably.
