Ideation 8,216 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I have to admit mine gives out the very occasional whine of frustration, when he loses a rabbit through cover and he knows it's going to get away . . . . Quote Link to post
Sirius 1,391 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 There is the odd whine and there is a yapper BIG difference. Silent is ideal however. Quote Link to post

It's worse when you do that as the wind whistles through the holes when they run fast ....... Quote Link to post
Haggis81 147 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I cant have any noise, I would put up with one or two (but no more) yips on first chase (only the first chase) but anything more and I would pet home the dog. I also would not go hunting with a mate if he had a yapper , draws attention and spoils the run for me :-( 1 Quote Link to post
