Paid 935 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 No one takes my dogs out, but me. A good friend has asked a few ties, but as accidents can, and do happen, if it happened on his watch, it would be the end of a friendship. Quote Link to post
Paid 935 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 now my boys, when they are old enough, would be a different story. Quote Link to post

lamping lurchers 34 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 i suppose in some cases it will also depend on the type of dog and the type of quarry, my feelings for loaning lets say a gun dog or bushing dog would be different to say a lurcher or earth dog Quote Link to post
Romany 1,065 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I NEVER take anyone elses dogs out to work, its just not the same, but, I have let some friends take some of mine over the years..I had a dog called Pup, she was 11 months and had quite a few rabbits for that age, 15 was the most in one night, lent her to someone any she killed 34..a bitch I had called Ruby got her first fox when out with another guy, so I missed that one too, important things that I would loved to have been part of..but I lent them and I cant change that now..Now, I dont have friends so I wouldnt be lending any dogs out Quote Link to post
Catcher 1 639 Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Can understand why you wouldent let your dogs be taken out with anyone else.Pre- ban we hunted day and night.Been almost the same the five or six in our groupe for so long.Maybe thats the bond. Quote Link to post
collie/grey 238 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Nobody ever takes my dogs out except ME. I have let my mum take one of mine out before and a previous boyfriend but even then i didn't like it, if something happened to my dog while out with someone else i would be hard pushed to forgive them. So much could happen it's just to risky. I don't like taking other peoples dogs out either as it's alot of responsibility. Quote Link to post
terrierjohn 49 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 not a chance, my dogs listen to my commands and my commands only so no way would i let anybody else take them out and give them commands Quote Link to post
Country Joe 1,411 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Many years ago a friend who was older, I was eighteen had a wee bitch that was probably the finest hare catcher pre ban I have ever seen on small fields, anyway he said I could take her out, I kept her on the leash, and walked her 5 miles to good hunting ground that always had Hares, I let her of the leash, she took one look at me, and took off, On walking back I was worried sick what was I going to tell him, On return when walking into the house, here was the Bitch lying on his couch in front of a roaring fire sound asleep.
