John-B 4 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Well, off out again tomorrow on one of our permissions spoke to the farmer earlier and he told me there is still a little bit of snow on the ground but i'm sure that wont stop us, anything would be better than the blizzards we ferreted in the last time, the ferrets are eating a tin of warmed cat food with a couple of teaspoons of olive oil in as i type this, Bouncer the flat coated retriever is going mad as he knows he is going out as the ferret box is in the kitchen ready to save me banging about in the shed first thing in the morning, got my quilt on the sofa as it's a waste of time me going to bed the evening before a day out as i can't sleep, only thing left to do is to make the decision on whether to take tuna or ham sandwiches haha then get over to Col's for about 0630 Quote Link to post

John-B 4 Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 aye, it's funny watching him chase them when one flies out a sneaky bolt hole, he yelps in frustration but doesn't give up and usually finds where it was hiding or what set it has disappeared down, only problem i have with him is if there is dead rabbits on the floor and you take your eye off him he picks them up and starts licking them allover, not only when they are dead but he's trying to get them when they are in the nets aswell, the last one we got the last time we were up there he marked the one in the wall so we got it out dispatched it and he carried it all the way back to the van like it was his toy bless him, I will try to get some action shots tomorrow for you Quote Link to post

Looks like he enjoys himself as well! Sometimes it's more fun watching a dog thats not meant to chase them! Quote Link to post
