Cleanspade 3,322 Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 your allready makeing a big mistake. digging and encouraging your dog on. will only teach it to false mark. the dog will either go or not go. you are encouraging the dog to go at holes that may be empty.get some books. read the back posts on here. join the fmwtc. then you will have some knowledge to build on. good luck 3 Quote Link to post
events co-ordinator 353 Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Fell & moorland the right way to go and remember you must have permission in Writing in England and there are conditions to be met as regards putting a terrier to ground. Quote Link to post
