went for a mooch out with my lakey earlier and abit of bushing with lamp, gave a fox a little chase but want out for that so shouted him back. about 10-15 mins into the walk found a decent spot plenty of rabbits was out in field and a fare distance from the bush soon as i put lamp on them he was on the chase and chased back to the bushes. when i got to the bush he was smashing his way threw and chased one out and was right behind it. an hour had past and he had bushed out and chased about 15-20 rabbits and got right up behind them but the rabbits all seem to have that bit more speed, so just woundering if anybody nos anything i can do to get him quicker. it could be just because hes still a pup and only 12 month old or could be because hes only 13" tts but if anyone nos anything i can do to get him quicker it will be appreciated.

lamping rats with terriers but i would hate to lose a terrier while bushing at night...good luck with that one

[Pig boy 29]

My terrier disappears for ages bushing in the day and only returns when he wants, so i'd hate to be in that situation at night
