Hot Meat 3,109 Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Had a couple now, both bullx and colliex that were lamp dogs put to coursing dogs. I don't think I have anything else now. Get a good un and there's not much they won't do 1 Quote Link to post

crorider 174 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 That's a nice PIC of her con. She's the only other dog I've been out with half coursing half lamping bred and I honestly don't think I could fault her..... ... apart from her pulling like a train and screaming her bollox off when it ain't her run... 1 Quote Link to post
forest of dean redneck 11,679 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 That wee hairy dog of yours cracks me up.has it caught any squirrels before? Or is it just rabbits Quote Link to post
fitchet 788 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I've got a day dog here that's done a fair bit of everything lamping ferreting bushing and although its abit big for rabbits but has never let me down he should be going over a good strong lamp bitch this summer hopefully should end up with a couple of gooduns out that litter. I have a nice feathered bitch that I'd like to put a well tested bull\grey to I think I'd have something good but as hallways its getting access to good blood and enough genuine people to give pups an honest and fair go.

Hurlock 114 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 What way your day dog bred fitchet? I think they're a lot more versatile than people think, my old bitch was sharp as a tack. Real misconception that they are 1 job dogs if entered and trained right they can do a lot more than people think. 1 Quote Link to post
crorider 174 Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 That wee hairy dog of yours cracks me up.has it caught any squirrels before? Or is it just rabbitsNot just rabbits on the lamp but Nah never had a squirrel but to be honest he's never had anything in the daytime, I walk them local and there's literally Feck all to go at. I do loads of travelling for lamping. Before I got my other dogs I used to mission up the A2 to meet an old fella in his local woods with his pack of whippets. My little dog used to push plenty of bolters out of the brambles and blackthorn but they never caught one, came pretty close a few times but I could tell from his reactions and the amateurish way his dogs chased the rabbits that they'd never really seen much. I walked him on some marsh land with my other dogs a couple of months back and he just switched into beagle or spaniel mode which I'd never seen him do. He's usually completely listening to me waiting for a command but this time he just went death to me. Nose to the ground following scents frantically for a whole hour. The only time his head lifted off the floor was when he kicked one up....... I definitely weren't expecting to see anything so me and the dogs were so far away when it happened that he had to run it on his own. Was a funny sight to see a 16 inch dog in the distance yapping his bollox off being straightlined by a big rabbit. Duno how far it took him but the little *#*# didn't come back for half hour and the only time that happens is when hes been after something he shouldn't. 2 Quote Link to post
