Mick C. 229 Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Moochin to me would be likened to one dog one man combo boardering on a sublime passion to work together .as a team. Its got to be one of the most fulftlling forms of hunting for the pot 11 Quote Link to post
tb25 4,627 Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 With the land I mooch I need a team of dogs to all play a part. If I have eny chance to catch owt..and a terriers really handy..as said my small lurcher is really fast of the mark for the bunny's what brakes cover then my pup in a few months should be a big help with her speed for eny things else that's been hunted up or flushed from cover..one dogs no good to me.. 1 Quote Link to post

Fair play mate we all got our own way. Its great with a lurcher and terrier and maybe a little bolting ferret and a pocket full of nets. 1 Quote Link to post

trenchfoot 4,243 Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 the best mooching dogs are made, not bred. out at as early an age as possible. No lead, no slip. Just out with its owner. At every opportunity. Finding, chasing and learning. Its no surprise that most young lads first dog is often a bloody good moocher. And the same with those of more senior years who have wound back on more obviously high octane pursuits. 19 Quote Link to post
