Neal 1,866 Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 I think my best "cocky" moment was many years ago and I was out with my little collie x whippet. The two people I was with both had large deerhoundy dogs and were in the process of taking the mick out of my pocket sized waste of space as they all worked a large patch of gorse in unison, completely ignored by my little thing, who was criss-crossing a small patch of rushy grass which was so small that we could all see it had nothing in it...except that it did! I felt good that day. Quote Link to post
Jackboy2011 16 Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Bought a dog a few years ago £50. the dog looked terrible funny shape it looked about 30 years old. Anyway I took it out one morning, on watching my mates dogs miss their first runs my turn up it pops 50 yards in front, mid January, bang like the big ears had 3 legs. After 4 runs 4 kills and 4 hours bragging and laughing my breakfast and petrol was paid for as the winner. 2 Quote Link to post

bird 9,897 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 back in the 80s , was lamping jumped over the fence as you do now+then lol, had Blaze my big black+white colliex grey with me. Blaze was ok on rabbits, but loved a tussle with old Charlie more lol, he had that kind of temp nothing bothered him, and very loyal to me. Well walking down the field I had 4 rabbits already, had fox following me as they do most times, but never get to close to you as they do. I flicked the lamp on about 50yds in front and seen this massive dark shape infront of me, it looked like a massive bloke who was kneeling down , then started to stand up towards me. Blaze started to growl , I think he would have ago if he had to . But as got closer Blaze was really have a go, he stood still like a stone he meant business deff, the shape got more bigger looked about 7ft, I thought I am dead here this bloke going to kill me .Well put the lamp full at him , thought I try to blind him and leg it .lol I watched and it was a big feck'n black horse , it had its arse down in a hole , but sat up looking at with just its to front legs, it was still over 6ft as iam not far of that, and it towered over me . I had laugh to my self after , it deff sharpens you up for the night I can tell you lol, and old Blaze stood by me good old dog, not like my 2 dogs now they fecked off right away there not very brave . 4 Quote Link to post
johnrussell84 2,832 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Mines woulda been maybe ten or more years ago now me and a mate where out walking in crazy weather wind howling rain felt like it was battering thru you. We had my pup my old lurcher cher she was a heinz variety but very reliable bitch and my mates wee russell. We seen nowt as we were only ones daft enuf to be out when we passed an orchard looked thru and looked like a blurr with rain a Charlie lyin under a tree. It made its way to cover anyhows the old dog took of russell in tow right into the cover followed by my mate alittle enthusiastic to be part of the action by time I was half way over I could hear him screaming the fox had him with the tongue of his boot whilst my lurcher had the fox pulling him about the screams of help get it off u need to help me its got me. I was on my knees with tears. TO this day it still makes me chuckle the brave young man turns opera singer with how high his voice went brilliant 2 Quote Link to post
alex1987 164 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 mine was when i first went up the dales ferreting. parked my 1ltr corsa as far up the lane as possible, about a 20 min drive before it became too rocky. walked for about an hour and a half to get to the tops where the numbers were with ferrets and nets before a lad that came with us realised he had left the locator and collar in the car. he went back down and drove the car further up the moor nackering the suspension in the process when we came to leave for home he realised he had lost the key so we were stranded just as it was going dark. the farmer towed us off the moor then the RAC towed us back to manchester cost in the region of £400 for key and suspension fixed if i remember rightly. to top it off it was my birthday! the most expensive ferreting trip ive ever had. lol Quote Link to post

crorider 174 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Took my alcoholic mate with me to lamp a few bunnies to show him what its all about. Running to my non retrieving dog to get a bunny off him my stupid mate followed but didnt see the big ditch full of water i just jumped until it was too late. I heard "FFUUCCK" turned round just in time to see him miss time his jump and practically leap head first into the ditch. Doubt i'll ever laugh so much again. Quote Link to post

TO this day it still makes me chuckle the brave young man turns opera singer with how high his voice went brilliant you right old Charlie can bloody bite hard when he wants , I remember one day with a mate we knocked out a vixen out of some cover, lurcher grabbed it but just held it, didn't kill it . my mate went up to dispatch it , I heard a feck'n real loud cry I though my mate may have fell over and hurt is leg etc. .... when got there the fox was clamped on to his wellie , it bit right through to his toe , it was painful for him , and that was only vixen not big dogfox , you can see why some dogs don't like a nip of old Charlie Quote Link to post
