kevin kiely 66 Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Cheers mate. that's good, because Id prefer terriers myself to pointers etc.so they do the job sure you wouldn't mind them chasing as long as the lurchers are on it Tbh mate my terrier will get where pointers won't he will work any cover and my pal keeps coursing digs so when we have a day out I work the terrier to put a few up for him for them long slips plus I use my terrier for ratting ferreting bushing etc by him self or in a pack and he suits me and the way I hunt, plus he is the fastest terrier I have ever seen lol caught a few rabbits on the run and is always catching pheasants What type of terrier is it Quote Link to post

tb25 4,627 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Mines only a pup and devi no dog for them.there not something I go looking for but the dog finds them Quote Link to post
LIGHT ON LIGHTS OUT 71 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Prefer mine off lead. If i was looking for a bushing/finding dog id probably look at spaniel or spaniel terriers. Seen pointers work and i think they may end up getting in way when slipping. Ive used terriers (fell types) for bushing but mine always seemed to feck off on scent and also dropping to ground. Spaniels and their crosses seem to be steadier and hunt closer Quote Link to post
kevin kiely 66 Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Cheers mate think the spaniel is the way to go.all the lads I know keep them on the slip .thanks for the advice 1 Quote Link to post

jcm 2,327 Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Nice one must be a good little worker He does what is asked however like most terriers as soon as the runners make a kill he is on it within seconds and will chase with the runners which in not fussed about and when the terrier catches rabbits there still edible Quote Link to post
