lamp+battery 98 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 why do you ask??? Quote Link to post
smarty 0 Posted April 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 just curious as my mate knows someone who has a litter of bedlingtons and he told me the dog will lamp rabbits and even take the odd day time rabbit but he has a tendency to stretch the truth so i thought id ask on here Quote Link to post
lamp+battery 98 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 well i no a lad who takes his patterdale terrier bitch lampin and seen run the beam and catch rabbits , and it can push rabbits out the rough in the day time and catch them but wouldent call it a lampin dog like but it dose do them, so i think a beddy will work a little better as they have slightley longer legs and more pray drive IMO lamp Quote Link to post
smarty 0 Posted April 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 cheers for the reply mate appreciated i take it it was quite leggy then ?? Quote Link to post
lamp+battery 98 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 no not realy mate standard size, but he has been takein her lampin since it was just a pup with the lurchers and its 3 now, works as a gun dog aswell he can shoot a duck on a pond and send the bitch in the water to fetch it, lamp Quote Link to post
smarty 0 Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 that takes the word all rounder to an all new level !!! heard a few stories bout pure beddys lamping surely some one on here has done it Quote Link to post
poacher3161 1,766 Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 cant exspect a dog that uses its nose mostly to be any good in the lamp not like a lurcher that relys on sight mostly [bANNED TEXT] lampin anway the breeders tellin you porkies Quote Link to post
