Nahhh can't be assed ,, she was an ok speedlamper ,she was good but not the best ,but she could fill a pot or two She was a good racer thou ,,for a 50lb hairy thing she could run and remained Undefeated against racing whip Grey's ,whippets and other racing lurchers under 23inch only other lurcher that beat her bag chasing was her littermate she was 26 inch ( bag chasers) lol,,but just quite life for me n her now ....but by Eck she could run... Determination in her was unreal ,,when weather battered us left right and centre on hills she never refused a slip even if we got battered by 70mph winds and icey rain and was knackered She never lifted her head on those rough nights,and it was a long night and descent bag Edited August 2, 2018 by MR RABBIT 1 Quote Link to post

MR RABBIT 715 Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Lamping rabbits is easy ,but taking big numbers in just a few hours The lamping dog has to be good at its job and have a certain mind set when weather giving u a hard time,,seen many a dog throw in towel when wet and cold ( thank f**k they weren't mine ) Hurricane Harry below 57 that quick night,,, one dog takes 50 ,,two dogs take 7 ,,one off them was a young dog but went on to be an good lamper,,,but gives u an idea ,,when weather gets tuff ,,,u want a dog who doesn't give a shit and just wants to work ,,even if there's a hurricane and rain and it's cold Edited August 2, 2018 by MR RABBIT 4 Quote Link to post
