I was beating for the local pheasant shoot, with my Lurcher bitch, the guns were lined up, and we walked towards the end of the first copse we were to beat. when a rabbit lifted. The 'keeper said "slip your dog", so I did. she missed the rabbit but up popped two roe ! She ran them the full length of the gun line to the next copse, where she (un)luckily missed them. At the lunch break, one of the guns wives couldn't understand why no one had shot the deer !! She thought it was part of the days shoot !! LOL !!

 

Cheers.

lamping a few yr ago,,slipped the dog on a rabbit that decided to run through a load of cows...only to be trampled to death in the process.. that rabbit was only fit for ferret food....

I'm terrified of cows remember them chasing me as a youngster out ferreting cows surrounded me they were after my lurched of the time who wouldn't leave my side so I had to set off running they seemed to chase me not dog anyhow dog scaled the fence the cows were gaining on me so I had no time to climbe I had to try jump through the gap of the 3 strap fencing I decided the middle was easiest so I jumped as my belly hit the nylon strap of the fence then bang electricity hit me I totally forgot through the panic as I'm terrified of cows it was like one of them 6 pack machines but not one I'd use again

I had a fantastic Saluki / grey who also loved to chase sticks. On one run she had grabbed a stick from the ground, hoping I'd throw it for her, then she saw the 'bunny' and shot off.

 

In her excitement she still had a large stick in her mouth and chased her quarry along a hedge, very close, looking like she was trying to beat it to death instead of catch it.

 

She didn't get it that time of course, but the laughs it gave me were compensation enough for the lossof the quarry

me mates dog had just caught a rabbit on the lamp and was bringen it back when another rab got up in front of her she coursed it still with the other rabbit in her mouth

out one night with my pal lamping rabbits his dog ran and got the rab brung it to my mate alive, dropped at his feet an bang its away, the dogs on the chase again lol funny at the time

not so much of a weird course but a unlucky one for a rabbit. was out with a mate one night there wasnt much about so we were just letting the dogs run what ever rabbits we seen. we were in a field and there was a rabbit sat just out from the opposite hedge. we thought we may aswell let the dogs have a run, anyway the dogs got to the rabbit and put a couple of turns into it and for some strange reason the rabbit decides its going to run right the way across the middle of the field and go into the hedge by where we were stood.

 

the rabbit had managed to pull away from the dogs and was heading straight for home by this time i was thinking fairplay you deserve to escape with a run like that, anyway the farmer had been renewing the fencing he had just put a load of stakes in but hadnt fixed any wire to them. the rabbit run straight past us only to hit a hedge stake about 2inches wide and kill itself. if only it had gone 2inches to its left or right it would have made it home and lived for another day/night.

a pal of mine pulled a young bitch back off a lad that he had bred,the lad had been bumming how good it was and how well he had trained it for recall etc.well my mate harped on to go a run with it,so i tagged along.we ended up on a well known estate and put a long ear up in the middle of a large sheep paddock.he slipped at about 40 yards and off she went straight past the hare and had a course at every sheep in that feild with my mate coursing the dog for about 15 mins.i have never laughed as much out in the feild. the look on his face.think he would have killed me if he had any energy left
