Found an earth so far undiscovered on this estate,away from the beaten track so to say .No prints in or out nor scent available to the human nose but my bitch wanted in .Used to be fairly big at one time as depressions in the ground indicated old entrances.We found the bitch a good 7 yard from the only hole open and in a tree free area .The soil is pure sand here so the dig was over in minutes.The bitch was up to the fox and as usual was eager to get hold .My mate lifted her and the was fox shot .Simple as that .No drama ,just an honest dog doing what she was bred for .Turned out to be a stumpy tailed vixen ,heavy with young .Searched this area for more but nothing else indicated .

Dog struggled a bit did he ? .

SHE didnt struggle as much as a good days ratting mate :clapper: but then again she makes these earths look easy ,as any terrier worthy of a working title should .That big fella of yours would have struggled mate ,as it was a tight tube .

Interesting as you seemed to have trenched on fair bit , not something that need's to be done if your dog is right up to his opponent . Maybe just the photo that makes it look that way perhaps ;) .

 

To be honest with you ,my mate had started to backfill when I decided on a hole pic but yes we did trench about 18 inches "Backwards"to get down low enough for the pic of charlie over the spade :blink:
