Guest markbrick1 Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Everyday either on the lamp or first/last light depending on what I've got on for the day workwise. Probably get 20 or so rabbits in a week. Not as many around as down your way mate. Is it the black one that my bitch is up against in the comp? it surely is mate shes runin well but the brindle has a taste for other things at the moment and 6 rabbits is enough for her she wants other things bored with rabbits i think I have seen a couple of mates dogs that seem to get bored of the rabbits. Reckon it could be the collie in them. What do you think? i think most of the time your right but in her case a rest is proberly in order for a week,but even at her best iam now saying she wouldnt touch the black bitch and i always liked the brindle but this black one is somthing else mate speed and stamina is unbeleavable and prey drive she doesnt say no to obstacles at all,mark Quote Link to post

tia.kins 56 Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Is it the black one that my bitch is up against in the comp? Mark wont mind me say this as he knows i like the way his little bitch is running this season......but if i were running any of mine up against that Black bitch, Id steer clear of competing directly and trying to give my dog the long energy sapping runs, that this black bitch does daily..... and stick to the short dashes ....the daft squatters.....the clueless rabbits!! Not all rabbits have to be taken in style on the run.....and if your dog isnt afraid of plucking game from cover, bouncing off banks or snatching rabbits from burries mouths......you'll do ok .........dont take the first rabbit you see either, theres always a nice one sitting tight when the other canny ones make quickly for cover Feck me, even Flyn can catch a few!! Good luck to you both.....its gonna be interesting, which ever way it pans out .......i am just itching to see the north south divide get up close and personal Quote Link to post
