rascal_2005 79 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Hi guys Was wondering how many of you get out bushing? I was wondering what you think is best to use alongside the lurchers? Be it terriers, terrierx, spanial, spanial x etc? Or would you let your lurchers bush for you? Cheers Rascal Quote Link to post
the big chief 3,099 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 we use all sorts whippets , paterdales , plumer terriers then lurchers on the out side does the trick for us Quote Link to post

What about dogs opening up and barking?? I'm sure you could teach your dog to open up. I doubt it would take much training. Quote Link to post

Flacko 1,755 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 One of our best bushers is a mally,marks,hunts,and bushes like a terrier pushes her way in most places and will catch on top if they make a mistake on short runs Quote Link to post
wuyang 513 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 I like little old fashioned jack russell terriers for tight cover......there's a good little bushing section if you haven't seen it yet. 1 Quote Link to post
