I'll be honest mate this dog has been a real eye opener for me, he's a good experienced dog man and works them hard, this dog has been great to watch over the past 6 or so years.

I think most dogs will no [BANNED TEXT] to be hard mouthed on and what not. I personally expected a rabbit to be retrieved live to hand, nor punctured ready for pot! Can't stand seeing good game going to waste. If every rabbit I caught I was mince meat, it defeats the object for the me!

I like live to hand. As they all off to the butcher but i dont think its trainable. All my lurchers over the years have had good retrieve that i think is all in the training as not all have done it natural but they have all had various mouths so to speak. I think it preference to the dog.
