s.e.s.k.u 1,893 Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 just back in had an hour out local with mate and his terriers... been doing a bit of bushing with the pup Gwen and these dogs lately and shes doing better than I could hope for at 8 months. she marks and goes in when needed and also patrols the exits ready for a bolt... well today she caught her first couple of healthy rabbits (she copped a myxi yesterday).. text book stuff today first one bolted and she grabbed it just as it slowed to re-enter cover. no retrieve as my terrier got there but Gwen held it and released it to me on command. well happy with that so on we went terriers entered cover next to the farm and we could here the them screaming, yapping and then out of sight the faint scream of a caught bunny then through the dyke and wire fence she came Gwen again but on her own rabbit presented to me ..really chuffed with this pup....just a start I know but thought id share it on here .. couple pics taken on the phone of the team today and gwens catch for the day ... thanks for looking atb sesku 11 Quote Link to post

matt101 115 Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Good stuff, looks like your pup incoming on well. Hopefully I'll have this to look forward to shortly! How's your pup bred by the way? Looks like she has a nice thick coat on her. Quote Link to post

matt101 115 Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Why did you go for the collie dominant breeding? If you don't mind me asking. most people with collie lurchers on here seem to have a smaller percentage of collie, And you've gone for mostly collie, is this down to the terrain you hunt?
