paulus 26 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 carnt see how it would hurt any dog catching a few mixy rabbits? be no differant to a squatter on the lamp, and as for pups will boost their confidence no end. Quote Link to post
Guest born to run1083 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Great confidence for pups, every catch your pups get is a great move forward and People who don't use there dog to mop them up when they got mixy can't be to bothered about there sport, I doesn't make sense unless your a pest controller.

Wallace1 17 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 best thing for a pup , just like easy bunnys on the lamp really but daytime , think mixys are good for the young terriers when working the cover cos they dunt go reyt far and then the terrier knows the ball game next time you out Atb Quote Link to post
KittleRox 2,147 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 (edited) Puzzles me as well why a couple of folks have said no very strange If its a pups 1st rabbit He/she is given a tremendous boost when it catches, the pup doesn,t know its mixy Edited May 30, 2011 by KittleRox Quote Link to post
baldockbanks courser 598 Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 no one has mentioned that rabbits recover from mixy know er days !? I would always put them out there misery in the past and Id perhaps catch 2 or 3 with a fresh pup, but now sometimes I dont kill them. The question Im asking is that due to rabbits recovering from mixy then breeding there imunity on to futer young are you ineffect killing rabbits that are sitting ducks and could be the answer to ending this sickerning disease? The man who created mixy deserverd hes eyes poking out with sharp sticks then left to starv Quote Link to post

mackel 31 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 great confidence builder for pups and some mixi immunity must be passed down maybe over generations to build up as some countries rabbits dont suffer the way ours do mack Quote Link to post
watchman 256 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 been out today and court 9 mixy rabbits to bring my young bitch on the place was riddled with them does any one else let their dogs have mixys for confidence cant think of anything better to be honest mate,done it myself many times over the years all seemed to do the dog the world of good,just dont under estimate a winter bunny and make sure the pup is fit and strong enough to deal with it you wont go far wrong,jmo of course Quote Link to post

It must do?! in the 1950s almost 99.9% of rabbits died when infected, now round my way you can barlie notice mixy has been about. year on year less die so it has to be immunity from recovered stock, I often catch rabbit with the scares from mixy. can any one clear this up 100% ?
