WILF 47,679 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 IMHO an all round dog would also retrieve shot game from land and water like a retriever...... Quote Link to post
Giro 2,648 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Should be a moocher,net dog,coursing dog and lamp dog taking all edible game in my eyes... Jack of all trades master of none, meaning when I said "coursing" I mean can catch daytime hares thats not 5/5 fen match dog.. Most folk Say all rounder, folk will have all rounders and never know it.. 1 Quote Link to post

terryd 8,650 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 My dog tom was an all rounder he caught rabbit, hare and fox that was good enough for me. Sadly came too a tragic end as all the good ones do unfortunately Quote Link to post

Then, again just my own opinion, it would just be an animal that takes a wide variety of game not an all round dog........ Quote Link to post

johnny boy68 11,726 Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 It would be an alrounder for that person type of hunting. An all-round ratter, feck me I've heard it all now.........explain how a ratting dog is an all-rounder then? Quote Link to post
walshy123 38 Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 Wat im sayin is it wouldnt be an allrounder for me because i do more than ratsbut, but if some one got a dog for just ratting n ratting only then surely its an allrounder for there hunting needs? Quote Link to post
