Young dogs 1st!!!! an my first solo dig

[hard grafter 277]

As the above says, went for a stroll with the collar on on the young black dog this morning in a wooded area a stones throw away from were i live which has a healthy urban fox population, the young dog seemed in the mood today he was buzzing around checking burrows but he wasn't interested in any of the ones we'd first checked, then we came across another set of holes, he disappeared down one an after a quick look around found him on the box an he could be heard baying away steady, so twas a 10 minute up an back journey to retrieve the graft an spade from the house,i got back to the spot an the dog had moved a little further from were i first got the mark, anyway after clearing the area from the thick bramble covering i started making me way down to the young dog after a 3 hr dig in which i had to so on my knees til i could stand up in the dig i eventually broke thru to him sounding away an then he took hold of his quarry it was a task to break him off an his quarry was allowed run on for another day, all in all i was happy enough with the young dogs performance.

If it is the dog's first dig then i would killing everyone of his game for the first couple of seasons, might of read it wrong though as it took 3 hours to get through ?
