Fuji, that looks similar to where I work mine but I have a smattering of broken breeze blocks, barbed wire, broken glass and smashed palettes too. Then again, as mine have no sighthound blood, they're so slow it's like a walk in the park anyway. (Touch wood!)

Bit like where I work mine , but I run mine over razorwire and broken glass, there's also unexploded bombs and bear pits along with the occasional hypodermic tip, but I brought them up doing it so they're fairly sensible.

brilliant

I was only being light, I run the forests with my dogs, I don't have the right to say much as we rarely catch, but I've watched the speed my dog goes through and it can be gut wrenching to watch, we rarely find in the brashing mostly small dense firs or the large swathes of 15-20 yr pines. I think dogs can come unstuck on almost any terrain, some that stick in my mind are two strand barb for cattle that a stretched out rabbit can run under but a Lurcher couldn't , especially in the lamp. Roads and cars always dislike working within earshot of roads but they're everywhere these days. Forests with single strand wire where the rabbit mesh has rotted away years before leaving a rust coloured garotte. All we can do is familiarise the dog, highlight obstacles in the lamp and cross our fingers. Also know your dogs capabilities. Mine is confident but has a vast amount of self preservation, hence with sit here starving but don't seem to need to worry about any vet bills, Atb Joe

Your on top form tonight mate!

 

Cheers, D.

Years ago I found a one eyed gamecock wandering in Byker, by the Ouseburn below the Cumberland arms.

It had probably been out on the pish trying to start some fights

Was out with Joe on Sunday walking dogs in the forestry blocks and was amazed how rough it was under the firs.

We'd been walking up the track at the time when the dogs dissappeared. When the tracker stopped at 300yds we cut into the trees. I couldn't believe how bad it was. With moss covering everthing, what looked like solid ground turned out to be branch's and logs laid at all angles, wet boggy ground, hard ruts and everything in between!

Certainly changed my opinion on running that sort of ground!

Tess has been pretty bomb proof so far but I really think she'd hurt herself trying to exercise in that.

The forestry blocks near me are all dry flat, pine needle covered ground. Worst a dog has to watch out for is dead branches still on the trunks.

Think I'll stick to my wide open dairy fields with the odd deciduous spinney!!!
