Check along the country roads for a fresh one, skin it and nail it flesh side up on a bit of wood and cover in salt, leave for about 10 - 14 days and remove the salt. You then have a rabbit skin dummy for the price of some salt and a few nails

No bother mate, it won't do it any harm either to be mouthing a rabbit skin dummy

i wouldnt let her rag it about mate else she will wanna play tug with the rabbits she catches which can be a pain in the ass.

 

i got my pup one and taught him to retrieve with it ect never allowed to play tug or rag fur though

[dannyevans1990 25]

ye ino that but alot of people say let them be a puppy then train them i dont see the harm with abit of playing/biting and gettin used to the scent persionaly

As one post said above use it for retrieve training, I wouldn't encourage any rough play with the fur as when it gets older your probably find your have one hard mouthed Lurcher when it gets older, and good luck training that out of them.

Edited to say wouldn't not would lol
