Frank Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Was invited to a freinds place for a mooch with the dogs. Had a great day, walked a good bit and the dogs managed a hare, after a few courses. They put up a fox too, but it managed its escape, big fella too, one for you Mark. Top breeding these dogs, they know what their doing and do it well. I really enjoyed myself, thenks D Mark, where were you? Heard something about looking for foxes at 3 am? Some pics below. Frank.

Frank Posted September 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 And here are the happy bunch, with my saluki lurcher. The black dog, is a collie x whippet, deadly nose and a great finder of game. He is 10 and works like a 2 year old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
