Neal 1,857 Posted December 22, 2015 Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Would be very happy if they went to ground Peter lol . As I always say there's only one man a dog has to please and that's the man that feeds it , if the Russell suits your needs then fair play and hope you get loads of sport . A mute dog with us wouldn't be kept , had a collie/springer years back that would out hunt any dog but wouldn't bark , have him to a guy who thought there was nothing like it A very important point! One man's litter wastage is another man's pride and joy. Quote Link to post
Hatch28 240 Posted December 22, 2015 Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Willow do the spaniel/terrier cross bark on scent ? Like a dog to make noise when hunting, especially when on fox . My jrt is silent when bushing and that suits me fine on the land I bush daytime its hunted to death any noise from a dog sends them to ground I've noticed that I've a much better catch rate than people whose dogs bark on scent Amen to that rabbits have big ears and don't need a dog to bark for them to relise your coming all mine are more or less silent might give a yap when chasing one. 2 Quote Link to post
