Also wombat holes over here hide more than wombats (which can crush dogs skulls on the roof of the hole) but pigs often hide in them adding to the danger for a small sighthound. Quote Link to post

Sammy666 49 Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 Its a pain in the ass iv a lurcher here 4 year old started doing it this year. Brought the dog up to work with terriers could hardly catch a fox in 40 acre feild but great round a hole. He did it first at start of the season didn't get him out for 15 hours was stuck with the game dead in front of him and dug the terrier at the other side of the borrow at an other fox. Did it again there on sunday fox went to bolt and the dog went down the hole like a rocket dug him and the terrier out in the feild fox dead again. It's a pain in the ass the dog could get stuck or could do serious damage to a terrier in the heat of the moment. He the best and most game lurcher I ever had not for the faint hearted 1 Quote Link to post
