milesy75 8 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Soz bout the pat lovely game dogs , nice locking bullx you got there ,if you get another terrier get your self a rat trap let him see what the smell is an if the rat in in a cage nips him he'll forget about other dog an just go on the hunt down there ,that what I done with my old patx ,people might have different was but that worked with my dogs down there Quote Link to post

Blackdog92 2,047 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Ive got one of those traps i could only ever seem to catch young in them though adults wouldnt go in it. Might be diffrent if there is a big volume of rats though. Quote Link to post
buster gonads 862 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 I,v a few different traps but i like those as they re-set them selves, if your starting a pup on rats then catching young un,s is ideal, although i have caught the whole family before now, just a big ball of rats LOL. 1 Quote Link to post
milesy75 8 Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 Corey iv only got my ferrets an whippet now , I go down dock sometimes with the ferrets let them stretch legs Quote Link to post
green dragon 701 Posted July 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 I bet the ferrets do well Down the dock when I went down the all we did was move a few bag and kicked a few bins iv started a rat smoker out of my old mini moto engine it seems to work very well smokes I like fook what age do you start a dog on rats? I was thinking about a year as I don't want to rush anything Quote Link to post
milesy75 8 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 They do specially under the first container by the sheds there's a big nest under it you should try it with your smoker ,as far as starting a pup just take it down there for a walk he'll show you when he's ready coz there rats all over the place there go there in the evening when the place is quite iv seen them in the middle of the road there eating card an lobster they have a better dinner than me lol 1 Quote Link to post
