OldNog 432 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Ok heres whats happened...... Yesterday i found a single hole earth on a small bank next to a shelter belt of conifers. Nice hole, not to deep looking and dug out with pad marks around. I smoothed the spoil down and threw a bit back in the hole. Returned this evening and guess what.....dug out.....pad marks going in....STINKS of fox. I didnt even need to poke my nose down to the hole! Ok....also today...B+F come in the post so spent all day playing with it. I called the lad i got me bitch off and asked if he wanted to come dowwn first light for a dig with his old bitch so mine could watch....no can do, hes gotta work. NOW im VERY VERY tempted to take my bitch down and drop her in if someones home. If there isnt then no big deal, at least i know of 1 hole that holds! I know iv been moaning recently about lack of permission, but this groun belongs to the farmer whos a friend of the family and he just mentiioned the other day of this spare bit of ground he has!!! First thing i dome was race down there in the motor!! SO.....DO I.....DONT I?!??!?! Quote Link to post

OldNog 432 Posted September 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 If you think the dog is ready for it, let it go. I would say so. When i found this hole yesterday she was down the hole as far as her lead would let her whilst i was just looking for pad marks Quote Link to post
