Hunts and takes them out of the seats lol FFA would you not give the long eat a chance ands enjoy the run where I hunt those 3 out of 3 only comes around very little more fairy tales I think lol like the 6 out 6 lol

Think we all like the chase but if your blanking and heading back to the vehicle, don't tell me you ain't scouring the rushes for a sitter lol.

Collie/beddy whippet or somthin along them lines

Seriously, have you ever seen a hare nevermimd a small field? I love the thought process, see the word small field, get a small dog for those of us who have ram small fields will know, no c**t told the hare he's in a small field. As far as he's concerned he's in open land with bits of wire, fence posts, walls, trees, gates etc to use as means of escape. The way you lot talk the dogs got to catch in a paddock or all is lost your right in the fact you need a fast type dog but you don't need a small dog ffs. One that can jump, has a turn of speed and a bit of wind is what your after.

 

 

Hav I seen a hare? Are you for real lil of course ur gonna need a smaller dog for smaller fields so they put the boot down an far more nipper... If u have a big dog say 26tts or over then it's nt gonna be as quick as the small dog with a smaller and quicker stride... Ya need a dog that'll turn a 6p pence

How smalls these fields then? I've done smallish fields all my life preban, smallest dog I've had was just over 25tts but usually 27tts. Never had a problem with height. I suppose it would come into it if you were coursing your back garden but that's about it.

yeah a smaller dog might have a bit more of a sprint but along dog will make up more ground bigger dog. Say youve got a bigger dog thats up and at um then your cushty all dogs are diffrent thats what makes um unique when watching um at work got there own diffrent kind of styles.

Exactly pal. You don't get many small good hare dogs, you'll get them obviously but a good big in will beat a good little un most times.

1 maybe 2 acres if lucky its mostly on mountains aswell all tight going for a dog a bigger dog would obviously be better on the flat fields but in my opinion that's all there good for big dogs are no good were I hunt I'd pick a smaller lurcher over the bigger any day... Horses for courses

I live in the highlands mate. I ain't no stranger to mountainous terrain. So your talking dogs for fields of 1 acre? How many folk course fields that small, not many I'd guess. Small to me is 5-7 acre fields. 1 acre is known here as a garden.
