Rabbiting Dogs


Recommended Posts

Bit of an update on our dog Don..unfortunately he has lost his sight in one eye..hes not had an easy passage lol..suffered a broken leg as a young dog plus loads of serious knocks and cuts etc..hes a hardy type and im sure he will adapt just fine..hes still put a couple of big beasts horizontal since this mishap...part and parcel of a working dogs life im afraid..just a freak accident and if he never caught the critter it wouldnt of happened but there you go..we will go back to war with him pretty soon im sure ")

Sorry to hear that.

 

My old dog has one eye Andy and is probably just as accident prone as Don (some dogs just are!), mine's caught enough since it happened, you've just got to accept that it can be a bit frustrating for 'em and you, now. :yes:

I spend weeks on end trying to find critters that only turn right...! :laugh:

Thats a bummer mate. He sounds to be getting aright thus far, I hope he carries on, he looks a tough old dog :thumbs:

We all need a good bit of luck with these dogs that's for sure :yes:

she still managed fine though, maybe it was a confidence thing, i have no doubt given don's nature he'll overcome this for sure
