Well some very very mixed views.   I'll come clean, I find out for definite tomorrow, but I have been offered a job down there, shepherding 2500 ewes and a couple of hundred cattle on one of the big

BRY - Yes it was, I had to go weigh 1500 lambs. lol.

 

The rest of you are fecking depressing me! Sounds like my dogs are going to be shut up in the kennels without a chance of a run or hunt at anything . . . .

 

It's certainly going to take some adjusting to, up here i'm used to being able to let my dogs hunt and mooch and do their thing. . . .

 

Ah well, can't live in fear can you?

 

Might just drop lucky. . . .

The folk who own the estate I may be going to, already know I come with running dogs and that I work them, and have not said it's a problem thus far. . . . there is however a shoot on the estate (30/40,000 birds) but apparently the keeper is a sound bloke. . . . .

 

We shall see. . . . by end of tomorrow I will know one way or another!

 

I guessed as much when you asked in the original post, the lad I knew did a bit with terriers and was at the time thinking of getting a lurcher.

Ferrets too, I would think in those circles mate you would be classed as a bit odd if you DIDNT do anything with dogs and/or guns.

I bet it's the same estate, they used to put down a similar number of birds if my memory serves me right.

Good luck matey

she wanted to live in Southsea and I wanted to move to Devon...we settled on Waterlooville as a compromise!

That's some compromise Neal

 

One thing I would add is that Hampshire could quite possibly the dog theft central of the U.K. It did seem to calm down a bit when I lived there but it certainly was a hot bed for lurcher, terrier and gundog theft

She's worth it. :icon_redface:

 

I do love all these negative opinions about the availability of rabbits in 'ampshire...it makes me feel better about not catching anything...I can blame it on geography rather than crap dogs! :D
