Lozzer 237 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Fair enough. Maybe some can be tidy and helpful at it and have a knack for it .but some might never learn. You're right too , it's no use if a dogs too shy of it too and misses that opportunity. Just my little take on it , no panic 1 Quote Link to post

Sometimes a rabbit will be sitting up, safe and sound, just in the mouth of a burrow. A keen dog will not know this until he breaks the bush, mine often flash into cover, only to just miss the rabbit as it gets to ground. As has been stated, it is an important attribute of a ConeyCatcher... 1 Quote Link to post

If you send a dog into every bit of cover a one hour walk would take three hours and for what to find out there is nothing in their not for me mate I’ll let the dogs decide if there’s anything in their atb BB Quote Link to post
