this little dog will catch most days out.

Smashing picture Willow..   I was tail docking some Red Fell types and the owner asked me if I wanted a pup...? They were beautiful whelps,.but I declined his kind offer, as back then,..my running

to be honest mine dont catch many flush well but catch no seen some old type jack russells catch a few under 12 inchs nipp throu as quick as rabbits the tan bitch is a good catcher if we let her work

Is there many lads on here that just simply go out with the bushers an hope to catch some in cover?no gun or lurcher.

My bushers sometimes connect,realisticly that is not their purpose especially as most of what they connect with would not be fit to eat.To me the point in owning a busher is for it to put things in front of a gun or more capable catcher.

The best catch dog in cover iv'e ever seen was a mates Cairn type terrier, hardly any leg on it, but it could steam through rabbits runs like a greased weasel, had a thick coat and nothing bothered it. Not a dog i would want though, i prefer bolting and watching the lurchers run, my bitch catches an odd one, which i don't mind, but its job is to find/bolt really.

I'm withTB25, a good walk and the occasional rabbit, I'll work it out one day.. I would love to see these dogs that always catch

My 3 Plummers catch everyday sometimes its only a few but normally around 8 to 10 or so,they smash any cover,no fear of nettles,etc,whatever is in there is either flushed to my lurcher or killed,there is not much gets away,once a terrier knows the game it is deadly,I have always expected my terriers to catch,WM

I still need to take you up for a day out, I know my limits, but I have never sent a dog into a hedge/cover thinking it would catch, just with expectation that it will send something out to the gun.

But the more I read on here the less I realise I now :thumbs:
