Excellent videos you put on here,,, takes me back almost 50 years, to most Sundays working Ferrets and terriers to reduce the Rat population on the local Pig and Poultry farms,, keep up the good work, and thanks for posting for jogging the memories 👍👍👍
Yeah, that closeup was gruesome. I am happy these guys are so open about the fact that this is sports to them. This is fun and exciting, AND they do a service for the farmer and keep poison out of the ecosystem. I have met moose hunters and wolf hunters (Sweden) who almost pretend they don't like hunting bur insist that what they do is strictly necessary to maintain a good balance in the ecosystem and keep traffic accidents down and keep moose from eating the saplings in the newly planted forest and they'll come up with endless arguments for being the most heroic and misunderstood people in society. And then they post pictures of themselves, posing with game they shot. It is redicilous. Just admit that you do this because you enjoy it... It is sport, first and foremost, and it is totally OK to think that this is exciting and fun. Just like those dogs.
@@nickjohns1192 What's funnier is if vegans realize how many creatures are killed to protect their crops, whole ecosystems are demolished to grow avocados and almonds
Bedlingtons are EXCELLENT ratters. We had one and he would take off across a field like a guided missile. He'd hit a rat or rabbit so hard he'd tear them in half most times. Part in his mouth and half not moved from there it was sat. I loved that dog, I miss him.
LOVING watching the speed of those dogs. Phenomenal ! Certainly does look like a whole lot of fun for everyone, except the pesky rats. Thankyou for your expertise Thankyou for the videos. 👌
I remember my parents had a Yorkshire Terrier and having some rabbits as a kid some rats would come and eat the rabbit food. The Yorkshire terrier would smell around the rabbit hutches every time she went out to the toilet in the hope there would be a rate to chase. It was like she was obsessed with catching rates which I guess comes from the breed being bred to catch rats.
Sehr beeindruckend. Das ist Team Hund / Mensch wie es sein sollte. Keine degenerierten Hunde ohne Aufgabe, die nur zum Spaß der Besitzer da sind und ein ödes Leben führen. Und es ist eine giftfreie, effektive Art Ratten zu dezimieren. Sehr, sehr gut!
I have a part patterdale terrier, I discovered after I found out he kills rats and cats on our property here in Hawaii. He has longer legs and is larger than the purebreds. RESCUE dog, my cousin told me Koa's breed after he saw him.
Ferrets in UK but see also rescued American Mink + Rat Guy + terrier He's created quite an enterprise beyond ratting too. He'll do well when thd S H T F. Certainly safer and more food secure then most.
Hello my name is Michael Russell, I have been watching series for bit & I must say that you do have my support as I have had to deal with a rat problem recently.
Love this channel and love this group. Adore terriers as a breed and one day i hope i can have a working one myself. Question on how you dispose of the rats tho?
I love ferrets. Takes me back to the days when I used to go out rabbiting with granddad in the badlands of the 'Black Country', England. Old Shagger, the ferret was my favourite. When I get a tan I still sport a tracery of white scars on my hands due to Shagger's tender 'kisses'. Sadly, I'm in exile these days and my adopted country of New Zealand does not allow ferrets. Flaxen Saxon.
I used to love watching the ratters on the farms when I was a kid in the early nineties but how do you get away with it since the Hunting with Dogs Act?
