Next years recruits....

Shoot2kill

I thought it might be nice to see what ye lads are bringing on for next year. I have no new recruits for birds next year (thank god, couldn't handle 3 years in a row training)

But..... I do have a few new recruits for foxes! The lemon/white & black/white are brother and sister. They are springer x beagle. The other bitch is from barking lines & is barking rabbits at just 6 months.

Jaysus you will have an eventful summer nothing like it though! Ive had young dogs the last 3 years which I thoroughly enjoyed training but next season I'm just looking forward to being able to work them.

Those young pups in the photo will just run away with the other fox dogs, hopefully they will come along themselves through the summer, plenty game and scent is all they need.

What age is she now? It looks like she is going to be a very powerful dog. The width of her chest.

I love that first pic!


I may get a pic of my 3 month old pup up, that's if he will stay still long enough.

5.5 months I think Dev.
She has a very wide chest & shoulders. Very square. Had her in the bog yesterday. She's was delighted. Have to be careful with em though - coz few drains & holes a pup would get lost in 2 mins if not on the ball.

dev110

Most of my shooting land is bog and when training my first springer he fell into a smallish drain with a little water in it. He was 6 months at that stage. It took me ages to get him used to water after it.

Ya I was consciously avoiding drains & holes & sticking to the heather & bracken but in places its hard to avoid but you could easily sour a dog so worth some thought. Was doing very well til about 5 mins from home & the older dog shunted her into a drain when she was crossing a board. No harm done but whipped her out, plenty of rubs & off again without much fuss. I could of killed him but just one of those things.
Worst of all was I lost my good lead. Was discussed so must walk back my tracks later & look for it
