Kaiserdog 20 Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Just got home after a trip to vets with my wife's hob ( Badger), found him collapsed in his run at 7.30pm blood from rear end, wife done her best to revive him as he was still breathing, but became worse & worse, vet put him to sleep. A great old hob, good at Rabbits & great with people & the dogs, I know he was just a ferret but tears have been shed. 2 Quote Link to post

Lee farrington 211 Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 It's always sad when pet/ hunting partner dies. The amount of time we spend with them from day to day caring for them and out hunting the bond is massive. R.I.P badger 2 Quote Link to post
