what is it about dogs

[Guest bob]

what is it about dogs that draws us to them

 

now there's lots of different ways to kill a rabbit

yet most of us prefer to use the dog

its the one thing we all have in common

no matter which dog / type

we all like to use the dogs to catch are game

 

me i love to see the dog run on the lamp

twisting and turning

gaining some ground

then with a twist or turn its either lost some ground

or its coming back to you with the rabbit in its mouth

 

ive done a bit of shooting

but its just not the same

end result is you've got some rabbits in the bag

but it don't get the heart raceing

I dont hunt personally as i have nothing to hunt with and no where to hunt but i was brought up around it and for me why id choose dog over gun anyday is because simply nature taking its course....nothing more breath taking than seein a dog with its bags at the end of the night or vids of them even if they are for me just on comp i still get that buzz and hope to have a night out sometime the comin season if i can find anyone to tag along with near me - pref female dont fancy a dark field with a strange bloke

In your case mate it'll be the fact that you can give them a "good kicking"

without getting an ASBO especially a collie X.

 

By the way where did that thread go to?

Some nights I've been at the death of well over a hundred rabbits/hares,.etc ,..taken out with the rimmy and dazzler...but,..like others,.it leaves me fecking cold...Cashed the bodies in at the dealers and counted the vonga,..but it still ain't for me...Whereas,. the sight of a beautiful canine predator in action and hunting his quarry seems to make it all worthwhile Always loved them rawney dawgs,.always will....

Its about having a special bond. This morning I was sat on the back step grooming one of the dogs, just relaxed me and makes you realise that we are privleged to share our lives with them............

The Challenge and it gives me the Adrenalin rush which you dont get from living a normal 9 to 5 life. I love rearing a dog from puppyhood into a adult and watching all my hard work pay off.

IMO anyone who kicks/beats their dogs has no respect for how dogs learn and communicate - only seems to make the small minded feel they're tough or something stupid like that.

 

I got my lurcher as a family pet knowing full well what he was actually bred for. He comes from excellent working stock but I never intended to work him mostly 'cause I didn't have the time or knowledge. Seeing him with my kids, watching him run, just sharing my home with him, all these things have made me realize how superior these dogs are to so many other breeds. I've had my share of different breeds including a wolf x who did hunt, and for me lurchers are the business When he caught his first rabbit and proudly brought it to me the bond got even stronger.

 

So in a long winded way that's why I would really prefer to only hunt with my dog. Not much bonding going on between me and a gun Besides, I'd probably only end up shooting myself in the foot!

What is it about Dogs?

 

I think its many things. Raising a Pup and seeing him come good and knowing you bred and trained him is a big Buzz.

 

Watching nature take its course when on a Hunt.

 

I think with us types its in our Blood and no matter what we do,theres no getting away from it!!!!!

Thread was deleted due to inappropriate comments. Think everyone understands...

I dont think you can beat the special bond that you get when working with your dog

 

If you resort to abusing your working pal you will never get the best out of any dog IMO
