socks 32,253 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Young rabbits are normally a right pain in the arse at this time of year ... Slipping through the nets distracting the ferrets from the adult rabbits etc ... However today they were welcome as I had lotty the pup out for another schooling day .. As soon as the squeakers started bolting one of the lads took Tilly to the other side of the warren and I stayed with the pup ... We had four bolt and make a run for it and she caught all four and retrieved them straight to hand ... Two of them slipped through the longnet and the pup jumped it without breaking a stride and jumped back over with the retrieve ... A good day out for the pup and more lessons learned ........ LOTTY WITH HER CATCH ......... 16 Quote Link to post
