How do people find the time to run multiple dogs

[the lamping ferreter 160]

Seen alot of people with 4/5/6 dogs how do you ever get the time to run and work them all  I've got 1 and that's good enough for me to keep fit and lamp 3 4 times a week in the winter I've had 2 before but just couldn't find the runs or the time for both so once they got older and I got fresh stock I just stuck with keeping 1 dog now

That’s ok until that one dog gets injured or something happens then your in a bit of a bad spot. I guess just putting in the hours and being smart about where and how you hunt

If I won the lottery I would buy a massive estate and fill it full of all sorts of game and be out with the dogs every day ….

I feel like I had more time when I was a teenager I still find the tome for the 1 dog but how people juggle work home life ect and 3-6/7 dogs is beyond me

Decent trained dogs can be run singly off slip. Used to do that very thing when I was younger and there were rabbits about .Mother and daughter .

Does no one ever work dogs off slip anymore to heel .Train one you can train another .Jealous retrieves we’re a thing but soon got over that if you keep on top the spare dog .
Times I’ve been out with people who’s dogs are doing somersaults when it ain’t their turn .Very amateur .

They don’t mate ,it’s a front you learn to spot .Same  as terriers .

You can only work a brace proper or your kidding yourself they are working .
These big leashes you see at shows say a lot about the owner ,feck all about the dogs .

Without offending anyone mate bushing can be done with a pack of chihuahuas and isn’t work of any kind .
