jack crowley i found a few rolled up purse nets there thursday so if it was you,THANKS catcher thats a concern allright,being run over but its very remote where i am.snoopdog the samaratins told me to feck off on the phone jt750 i get where your coming from as for being bold as my kids,my kids are angels compared to this lady.i'll just work on her slowly and whatever pace shes at i'll try and understand ...now wheres me gun only joking.but by jaysus she better be a good one after all this,lol.i introduced her to sheep that day too,she deafened me out completely and sauntered behind them as they troted about,luckily the ram gave her a good bashing and taught her it wasnt all cut out what she tought it was.i am putting her in a pen with ewes and lambs next week just to get her used to being close to them and i reckon mamy sheep will put manners on her fair quick.photos on the way after that.

Shes a nightmare- recall- forget it- using Tig my other dog to train her to come back. Had scary moment other day when he put two pheasants up & she spotted & raced after them. She was miles in field & luckily she came back.

Then some stupid women with a nasty yorky x come bombing across field. Tig - flattened it to floor, Sal grabbed it by scruff of neck & threw it in the air. Thankfully neither of them done much damage- more annoyed at the owner for not putting it on a lead when she knows it always goes for my 3 (usually cos they are on lead til shes gone)

But that said shes worth the effort- its fantastic to see her run flat out- shes starting to get fitter after a long while on a lead.

 

Stick with it- yours is a puppy that youve had from being young. If I can cope with this liitle cow bag & her theiving ways- digging holes in the garden & terrorising my other dogs you can. IT really is worth it & I wouldnt part with her despite her been a pig

Well Ashwood if you mosey on down to the ferreting section all will be revealed,i was trying to put a last ditch effort into a hob I have that will not settle and hunt to a required standard,hence i was out at such a late date,but he is being rehomed next week so i expect i wont be out again for a bit.I do have a few spots that i keep to give the ferret a run every now and again just to keep him tuned in and helps keep my young lurcher focused,so rest assured i will be having a day here and there over the summer when the urge takes me,and dont worry too much about it cause for the ammount i take over the summer will not be missed one bit.my main hunting grounds wont see a ferret till september again though i will drop in to chat with the farmers and shoot a few with the 22 to keep my permission.Dogs c-o,I am a relatively patient owner and i will make some hand of her for sure,I EVEN GOT HER WALKING ON THE LEAD TODAY FOR SHORT SPELLS after her vomiting and screaming session she walked along for a few hundred yards and i let her loose again,then clipped her on again and she played up,i waited,gave her reassurance and walked her again and released her.Then I even walked her cliped on right up to the car with little resistance from her and lavished praise on her when she was in the boot,I think im wining slowly. OH I HAVENT ANY INTENTION OF PARTING WITH HER,were life long buddies.........once she can run and catch fairly ok.
