jf1970 328 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 1) I advise you to get a lamp mate and go out as often as you can with it and both enjoy yourselves. 2) I advise you to get ferrets as well. They dont cost millions and they dont ask for much. 3) Rolling in grass is something dogs do, thats all it means. 4) Dont worry about myxi rabbits, they cant pass anything onto the dog or yourself and youle be doing them a favour by killing them. 5) Re the charlies, shoot them. 6) Last week I was out with the dog and althogh my recall is now good I allow him out of my sight, he came back really crying, limping so much I was convinced he had had a break of bone on the hill- got him into the light and head covered in blood. Ear a bit ripped, not a lot but bleeding plenty. Very likely he caught a fox and it didnt like getting caught. 7) Cleaning wounds: Lots of different methods and a lot depends on the wound. Purple spray is good so is cut n heal, tcp etc. Allow him to have a moment of glory with his catch, dont take it off him straight away. And when you do, do it with lots of praise. Give a treat in return. If he refuses to let go, gently pinch the flap of skin between his back leg and ribcage. good advice dog magic exactly what i would have said. need a bullx for foxes so better to shoot em. am sure someone on the site would be happy for the permission to shoot ur charlies oh no you don't Quote Link to post
