Kye 77 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 id never pull on a dogs tail like that, madness,…two reasons…you'll injure the dogs tail,…also, if there jaw to jaw, you'll only cause more damage to the dogs face and mouth….just my thoughts, not my dog. Quote Link to post
UphillDoc 278 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Those fellas have never dug to a terrier. They have no idea it could hurt one, but truth is with the dog not wedged in, I wouldnt worry to much about hangin onto the tail. They arent machines, but they arent made of glass either... Take care. 2 Quote Link to post

Granted its frowned upon over here but its probably the done thing over there. No different to letting it run for the hounds i'd imagine . 9 Quote Link to post
hard core hunting 171 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 Keep at it mate Quote Link to post
whippet 99 2,613 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 I don't think its testing them , I think it causes unnecessary injuries to both ,........there were times pre ban that a drawing dog had its uses in certain circumstances .....and in that situation , I think jaw too jaw , ahead shot would of been sensible,..........in stead of struggling for so long .... don't get me wrong im nothing against preban when they use too draw ......... but it would be over within a matter of seconds ,......inn draw and killed,..... not knowing much about yotes or hunting yotes,.......there quite evenly matched and would take some drawing ,........(maybe wrong and I don't mean in weight ,but if that was a fox it would of been out and dead). easy too criticise as they may not of had a gun handy, but out hunting , decisions need to be made for the welfare first of our dogs and secondly for the quarry ........ many dogs will lock on or fight at the entrance of a hole ,........and they would for a long time , its dog eats dog ,.....but if the job aint going to be done quick and efficiently, then my point is , instead of watching them punish each other , needs somebody with a bit of sense too get a shooter and kill it.... the mentality of some people , im sure a lot like too see the fight , instead of the purpose which is wrong......just my opionion , and like I said if they didn't have a shooter then it could of been a lot of punishment for both ,.......

BIG G wheton machine 1,594 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 f**k all the bollix talk you work your dogs how yous like. I don't condemn any form of hunting and like to see the big dogs going into the dark and drawing as it was always the test off balls luchers too. you work how yous want because it could be taken away from you in th future and then you have the memories to look at after. and if the dogs didn't want to do it then they can very easily walk out of the stop. keep er lit fellas its good reading 4 Quote Link to post
UphillDoc 278 Posted January 8, 2014 Report Share Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) The dog IS the gun in my rig. Odds are, the reason the coyote got in the hole in the first place is because the other dogs wernt tough enough to stop it. Make enough excuses for your dogs and soon you wont even have to take them... Whippet 99-I think you summed it up..."not knowing much about yotes or hunting yotes" Take care.

Bosun11 537 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 The vast majority of us, in 'ol Blighty, know feck all about 'yote hunting' and how it works for those guys, we work from a 'limited' point of view and sometimes these open forums may seem far to 'open', for all the folk that want to have their say.... From what I see and read on these American thred's, dogs are judged purely on ability alone...! Quote Link to post

Kye 77 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 i wasn't having a go at all, i was just saying, and imo, if a dog is touching the ground, with any part of its body, it can cause damage to the dog,…i don't pull on terriers tails either. Quote Link to post
