Simply Bull 02 11 Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 well i have 2 lurchers i did have 3 and the way you do it is alturnet nites for each dog and as for running two dogs on one rabbit dont be rediculas running two dogs at one time will ruin almost any dog they can become lazy and incases dependent on another dog and chose not to run alone this is fact i made this mistake with my 1st lurcher when i was a boy and lets face it if a dog cant do the job you want it to do by itself then it goes why feed shite when you could be feeding a good dog atb mate Quote Link to post
lamp+battery 98 Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 (edited) i lamp on me own most neets and i run 2 dogs,both on seprate slips with loops on the ends, 1 on 1 finger and 1 on the another takes some gettin used to but av got there in the end, the only problem is when a get to the first field they get a bit exited and some times cross over each others slips, but after the first few runs they settle down and can walk for miles. i only run 1 dog on 1 rabbit lamp Edited September 27, 2010 by lamp+battery 1 Quote Link to post

TOMO 27,072 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 when i run 2 together, i usualy have one on the slip lead, and one walking at heel, the one at heal will run the rabbit, then swap over........ when running a young dog thats not quite walking to heel as properly as it should i use the slip lead the same as lamp and battery. if running diffrent dogs difrent nights , make shure you take them both for a long run just befor you go out lamping, behind the motor is ideal, obviously dont give the one being lamped much. then make shure your mrs is on board to sort out any howling Quote Link to post
