Young Russel Doing Well!!

[gwalchmai4110 1,757]

had a day out Saturday to try and mop up a couple of bird killers on a small shoot. pushed some cover through first, but as we already new in that sort of weather there was only one place we were going to find Charlie, and that was under the sod. we tried a few small places to no joy so I started out across the rushes to a very large rangy earth I knew very well.

 

the lurcher was off ahead and when we reached the earth my little red bitch was marking the top end of the earth , like her life depended on it. I tethered her and the terriers away from the earth before chatting to my mate to decide the plan of attack. this earth was spred over a large distance and I knew it to be very deep in places, but due to its range a bolt is the usual out come. we decided to try a young dog to ground who we had dug successfully in a few smaller places. we now fealt it was time to step it up a gear.

 

I collared the strong typey little Russell up and he flew to ground. we waited with the shotguns, but half an hour past and nothing had shown. the bellman brick told me they were stationary and at a depth of seven foot. we gave it another 10 minutes and as he had not moved we started down to the little white dog. the digging was easy enough and we soon sent a rush of light flooding into the tube. and I could see the little russel, tail wagging baying frantically at his foe. he was drawn from the earth and the Charlie despatched. all in all a faultless performance for the young dog!

he was bread by a bloke in south wales who has had the line years. great bloke, that lives and breathes working dogs. I have since been back to get a bitch who would be a half sister to the dog in photo as I liked them so much. atb

I'm looking for a tidy little rough dog to use over my rough bitch there hard to source. I've found 1 down South Wales or Cornwall but it's having time to travel with work en that and she's ready this week.

he has a lot to prove mate before he has the luxury of covering a bitch. they are about mate in pockets and I have seen some excellent white dogs work to ground, they may not be in the numbers they ounce were but they are about mate what part of the country are you from mate just out of interest as I may be able to point you in the right direction? atb
