Guest annette jackman Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 (edited) My little bitch fenn has finally been blooded. I know its out of season before any one says, but she been keen for the last few months so over the golf course we went. the jill was worked fully for the first time along with fenns first working with the ferrets, and we were not disappointed. Many rabbits out in the open so let fenn have a run with the terrier. After abit of searching found 4 good sites, sent the jill in after setting up. Took abit of time getting fenn used to the nets, but she got 5 out of 7 on her first try. still need to do work with fenn to train her to set and watch but that will come. Great day out thanks ste!!!! I now have the ferreting bug Edited July 15, 2011 by annette jackman Quote Link to post

The man we went with has been going it for years i did not think she'd do it on her first try. I'll defo be there come opening season. Edited July 16, 2011 by annette jackman Quote Link to post
