Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 After a long time thinking about it I finally got myself a little busher to work alongside the lurchers. I didn't have a particular cross in mind. Fancied terrier X spaniel or something along those lines. Never even considered a Plummer terrier but one came up for sale through a mate of a mate. 2 year old bitch, hardly done a thing. Bit of ratting. Very green and got lots to learn but very keen and more importantly to me very sensible and level headed. Silent in the kennel. Good in the motor. Good around lurchers. She is settling in well and has just showed me enough promise this morning to keep me happy. Few pics... 18 Quote Link to post

Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Cheers boys. Mighty Celt she's a work in progress at the minute but she will be smashing cover for fun in a couple of months im sure. She's keen and just needs to see plenty now. I'm out every day mooching over quarry's, around hedgerows, ditches etc, all which hold R/H/F so won't take her long to pick it up I don't think. Gonna get her some ratting aswell to keep her ticking over. 1 Quote Link to post

I didn't fancy anything with too much hound blood as the land we hunt isn't massive and working closer in would be more beneficial than off on a trail. But it's horses for courses mate and I know you work some vast land. Atb. 1 Quote Link to post

I could get a spaniel X terrier pup and wait 12 months to find out it drops to ground though? If it starts dropping to ground it will be worked with locator on. It's bred from ratters and bushers which don't drop to ground and at the minute she shows no interest in working below. So only time will tell. 1 Quote Link to post
