socks 32,253 Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 Did a little spot on Sunday and the rats were massive. Keeper feeds all year round and you could tell by the size of them. Very happy with the pup 11 months old and killing well. No shaking he just crushes them. 15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
forest of dean redneck 11,666 Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 I’ve seen few big rats crossing roads or killed not as big as that but wonder if the feeding all year round is quite common now? is it to stop the birds from straying far ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The farmer came over for a yap and was with the next door farmer, his wife and young son..they saw the dogs working away and the young lad loved it ..picked up his farm as well, I've had a few jumps over the fence lamping and there's enough to keep us busy over there for a week or 2..lol Be us now though, fishing rods out now!
