stevethefish 80 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Just wondering if I should try my patts on charlie, I only use them rabbiting at the moment, they are awesome marking dogs, the bitch always wants to dig and go to ground and the dog is as keen as mustard, whats your thoughts. I think they would love a bit of ratting too, they are always on the hunt for them in the garden (we live in the countryside surrounded by fields) ps they get spoilt rotten with the missus and live in the house.

tinytiger 840 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Would a 15 foot ferret collar strapped to their collar work? I have plenty of these. yes it the collar your digging to not the dog the lack of experience up to now isnt a big deal,if its in them its in them,in fact its a lot better than overmatching a dog at too young an age.

go2ground 152 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Nice head on the choc. one...I say you should let them have a go, but be prepared for a unhappy missus when you bring them home beat up...It would also be a good idea to go out with someone who has some experience with digging to them (wish I would of)...Good luck with them...
