Which is why i stick to the under a metre spots in sand so I can dig like an idiot for 5 minutes to rescue my 6 minute wonders .

Seriously though how many dogs can you work in one day without picking the spots carefully. I would rather dig one or two a day in decent spots than race around cramming in digs for the hell of it .Most digs I've ever had in a day is 4 when out hunting and that was at the South Dorset where every mark is a goer .Plenty of lads to go out with following week ,or whenever, if mine ever need R and R .It's nice to have younguns on but only ever when needed for me and never tie dogs at digs to give the game away .I steer clear of those who like to peg out multiple dogs as I have found they are the type to hole end ,a practice i hate .

Exactly anymore than 2 or at the most 3 digs in a day and they aint much of a dig.If your getting 5 digs in a day theyre only gunna be puppy jobs and if i was getting them sort of digs id be expecting an experienced dog to be going again not be needing 5 dogs.

Your making yourself look a twat mate .Are you seriously saying there's no self entering terriers about or you just on the wind up .I've never egged a dog in let alone hole ended it .Plenty of stuff here self entering .

They should self enter of course, but having a pup or two coupled up to take in a days events-smells, sounds, shovels, gun etc etc is all part of a valuable education for them IMO.
