That pied bitch didn’t make what I wanted she was a brilliant little dog very loyal and  obedient I think I could of competed with her competitively if that was my thing.she was a good rabbit catcher an the odd shot hare but didn’t offer me no more than that she had no heart.  she had a toe injury that played up a bit. I put her in a pet home never to be bred out off with a family member they think I’m a mad fecker they couldn’t get there head round how such a obedient dog was looking for a pet home till I pointed out what I needed from a working dog or wanted.first dog ive ever rehomed normally there with me for life but things have changed with my thinking I felt this bitch could offer more as a pet than be sat in my kennel being waisted 

That's a fair, honest appraisal.

If there was more rabbits about id of probably kept on to her for just that she was a nice little bitch tbh I really liked her but her niece is the better dog she suits my needs better for round here

Trouble most places now had a few dogs that was outstanding on a rabbit that ended up not been cup of tea for fox work but couldn't keep them for just rabbits as up until a couple years ago you would be lucky to see 10 rabbits on the lamp but starting to pick up around the place now thank god

Mad ain’t it. I’m in the same thinking now mate as heartless as it sounds if they can’t do what’s required there’s not a home here. Only dogs that can or that’s made it to old age gets a spot on the sofa or kennels here.
Rabbits are thin local if you want them you gotta put effort in looking for em it’s a hard slog but if your keen it’s all part of the parcel
