did I say there was any powder on it that pic ??? I said all it needed was some on , can you tell from a picture (and a bad one at that) what kind of treayment was required ??? If so do you fancy becoming my vet it would save on travelling when I need one

 

fact is that wound was 4 days old in that pic and was healing nicely so was left uncovered to let it get a bit of air ...

 

ffs youd think the dog was near amputated , it was only a wee skin tear

Never liked lamping big bunnies they deserve better IMO

Can i ask why?? Hares are a natural prey animal in my book. Although i don't bother them at all on the lamp. This is purely because i don't own dogs for that job. But if i did..i'd lamp them all night long. Too much mystical shite surrounding the hare imo. Why should the hare get all wrapped up in cotton wool when folk deem it acceptable to lamp every other quarry. Just a genuine question.

Because its a different calibre of dog that can catch a hare at night to one that can consistently kill them in the day, i think thats why people get annoyed..... but im the same as you, back when it was legal, whatever popped up in the lamo was fair game

To be fair just liked to see a hare give a dog a good run in the day, so me i would leave for the daytime, like I said just my choice everyone to their own way

good point , another thing a dog that used most for lamp work (rabbits) would'nt run a hare and rabbit different . my older dog Bryn will take rabbits quick, norm 1-2strikes he nailed them. But he would have run a hare the same way, and where he bag 30 rabbits with 40 odd runs quick , not with a hare longer runs. watch good coursing dog on hare he hold back and pace him self, and should imagine he run bit similar at night if need be , not going flat out with every strike like a dog just used for lamping , well that's what ive seen over the years most good lamp dogs catch quick , in doing so save energy over the night . yeh a are hare fantastic animal in the day,and not bad in the night either .

It's what you do with it after, which determines it IMO....

Have to laugh when you hear the coursing men go on about respect, when most of the hares end up in a ditch

[aaron the coursing man 144]

all these coursing men go on about its unfair if they wanna see ther dogs tested run then on more than ten runs on lamp ther dogs disintegrate maybe first five runs look easy because ther racy fast but after that they haven't got what it takes ive seen it with my own eyes daytime dogs are long winded dogs a gud lamp dog will be short winded but get its wind back quick horses for courses am not saying you carent get dogs that will do both you will but they will just be medeocker at both you cant have the best of both worlds

Let's be honest all round dogs are jack of all trades master of none a all round dog shouldn't beat a purpose bred dog at its own game
