leegreen 2,221 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 The ground has been rock hard here for more than a fortnight and my dogs and I are getting a little stir crazy. They do go out every day and my Bull/Greyhound slightly twinged a toe running in the day time, not worth the agro lamping, lucky I've got ferret's and loads of guns. Quote Link to post
dexie 2 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Aint been able to get out for 3weeks now. ground just froze solid and aint prepared to take the risk, luckily bin able to give them run on beach evryday but even that bin hard in places. Looks like a break for sat/sun so maybe chance to get out ....DEX Quote Link to post

jembo 0 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I have not been out on the lamp for about 4 weeks now. The ground is frozen solid, and would not risk my dogs. Have done quite a bit of ferreting only in woodland where the ground is better when we get a few bolters, the dogs can run. Got a new lamp for christmas and not been able to use it yet, gutted!!
