bluhunter 26 Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Went out a bit ferreting yesterday, quite late on, decided not to bother with the nets and just let the dog have a run!!! First few warren there were nowt!!! Then a rat bolted out another but dog didn't even see it!! Last warren of the day, only a few holes, popped in the ferret and within a minute a rabbit was off!!! And so was the dog!!! Got about 20m then the dog grabbed it.. First proper catch for the pup!!! Kept it pinned to the deck for a while, I called and called but no recall! So I had to walk over. As I got closer he picked up the rabbit, still alive, and started to walk away!!! I called again, lowering the tone, and he obviously thought better of it and returned the rabbit to my hand!!!! Plenty of praise and some fresh liver and kidney for his good work!!! Not perfect but still pleased for his first catch!!! Cheesing!!! 2 Quote Link to post
