On the first fishing session Max jumped out my car window at the car park gate '- wasn't expecting that and forgot on the way home and he did it again lol - luckily he just ran over to me but what a mad man!

My neighbor has cocker spaniel sisters, the red one attacks the black one every day. I heard somewhere that red ones can have Cocker rage? I think it's just a lack of exercise and discipline in their case though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes brother and sister The red one is a little more highly strung, but she gives as good as she gets tbh they do need wearing out a lot though 😂 kevtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevtaylor Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 More carp dog practice for Max - he is easier to handle at fishing than he is at home tbh - so far so good, this week I tried both dogs off lead whilst I barrowed to the swim - any fears he would run off were soon gone as he followed me close behind all the way - impressed! George wandered off as usual - not far but got told off several times, think he is trying to escape Max the poor old boy - not used to sharing. crusian, Carpbell_ll, Golden Paws and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky wants ice. bit of a weird one the other day was sitting in the bivvy with fred and something fell against the back of the bivvy sounded like a few twigs falling out a the tree, fred shot out and round the back, heard something squeaking, went out and fred had hold of a mole i made him drop it and he did first ask, i had a look and seen it was a mole with a twisted front led, it could barely crawl let alone dig so i let fred deal with it, very fast and clean back of the neck and wrag. I was wondering if the mole had been picked up by a buzzard or something, wouldn't expect a mole to live in a flood area like that let alone out in the day. no mole hills near by? crusian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made sure every day during the hot weather she was able to be near shade and water so she could cool down. Sky has had moles out of the hole. She waits if a molehill starts moving as it digs out then shakes it. Young moles have been leaving the burrows or tunnels recently, even in daylight, I've seen barn owls in daylight picking them up for their young. crusian and Carpbell_ll 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
