gaffer bit ov retrieving hares


Recommended Posts

now that he has made his point he might be a bit more sporting the next time he goes out

 

Genuine question here mate,if you were in the market for a lurcher and had the chance to buy the Gaffer dog which has proven it's capable of doing a feat such as this or ANY "ordinary" lurcher that has caught the odd bunny and such on the odd occasion it's been taken out,ifboth were for sale for the same money which would you go for? ATB Andy.

im never in the market for a ready made dog i rear my own and put down surplus...i also woudnt have the need for 12 hares i switch the lamp off if one gets up :thumbs:

why slate others on something you dont do then?genuine question,

its simple i dont agree with killing hares in the lamp its about the only thing in fieldsports that i dont agree with

Not looking to stir up a hornets nest Scent but surely everyone who knows anything about running dogs knows that the lads dog has had to work to an extermely high standard to amass those? Why does it

seen sum 1 had caught 19 hares with to pups on the huntinglife so as the wind was up last night i thought i wud give gaffer a lamp i managed to get 15 flushes to the gun with gaffer managing to shoot

Lepus is a lot more than that and then some

I always want to chuck as much as I can at the dog (if I think the time is right and it can handle it), plenty of easy stuff early.......then as it gets better/older try and keep pushing the boundrys.........I dont know of any other way to know what you are feeding.

Sometimes, its like last night, soul destroying but you keep saying "one more field, one more field" and your work is cut out but you dont get work for the dog stuck in doors........

 

Excellent post matey...take em to the edge and then some,...that way and that way only proves if a dog has it or doesn't imo,whatever it's chosen work?.Like i said Wilf there must be plenty of owners who are easy pleased lol

Got no problem with it all, and the dog is obviously fit etc. And good to put work in front of it.

 

But just don't get going out for a big number to see if you can rival someone elses internet claim, so that you will get recognition?
