jiggy 3,209 Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 A bit fat at moment but likes his job. First cross so not a speed merchant. Can keep up with foxes when fit though. Not many rabbits here so always on the sharp end. Stripped out he looks more athletic but the hair can cover a multitude of sins. 7 Quote Link to post
jiggy 3,209 Posted October 2, 2018 Report Share Posted October 2, 2018 Same dog when fit. He looks like a labradoodle in first picture. Nice and cuddly and doesn't draw attention to his intentions. I'd like to throw in some gamey saluki blood for gears in his off spring. 13 Quote Link to post

Truth if known they live on slugs ,worms I've even seen them eating sugar beet. Rabbit numbers are very low and pheasants aswell. Foxes are actually the only animal thriving and increasing in numbers. Hares are doing well also but a first cross wheaten isn't going to threaten them. Pine Martin are also plentiful. Last time I saw good rabbit was 30 years ago when I was 7. I actually went out with another fella and caught 2 rabbits with dog and gave them to my father. It was 20 year since he ate 1. They were plentiful here 30 year ago but non existent now. Fallow were plentiful until a game dealer started offering big money and 90% of them are gone too. Quote Link to post
