byron 1,190 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 that old dog of mine was very vocal. and when to ground on fox soon had em stopped up .i found it very rare for him to bolt his fox.. started up with a very fast bark, but soon settled to a very rythmic sort of enjoyable bark [if that makes scence]....

HBG 350 Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 yes but his are too big to get to the fox in the hole and end up getting stuck,he lost one for nearly a week last year stuck down a hole,thought he'd lost it and very lucky that someone that new about it found it while shooting in the same area.

stevemac 443 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Thats interesting about them going to ground not what id be after. we have a terrier for that work not to keen on a dog going to ground in the middle of a blackberry patch or such Perhaps a second cross to the beagle would be a better option. still I like the way the terriers hunt just want them above ground got a mate with a parson xwhippet and that little bugger will go to ground when she can..
