This weekend my Son 'Kieran' and I. along with our dogs Jaspa and Meg went over to stay with friends again and had a brilliant weekends ferreting and falconry. Kieran is nearly 14 now and has really taken an interest in Ferreting and working dogs. We took Jaspa for some runs which is always exciting ( well done Jaspa) thumbsup.gif

The days Ferreting was great. We were so lucky to have fabulous weather. Kieran worked hard and learned so much.. I'm quite surprised at his enthusiasm and hope that it will continue.

Here are a few pics of the weekend with Kieran, Dave, Bob (the Ferret) and the Dogs.

Yes Billy looks great as usual but thats not what you said when he nearly ripped your fingers off when you tried to hang on to him by his collar He's a strong lad ...

lol... quite right.. We don't usually do pink but this a 'Breast Cancer appeal' collar which arrived only the day before so put it on to see if it fitted and then forgot to take her other collar with me.. she didn't work hard enough to get it dirty anyway Maybe I should take a leaf out of your book regarding collars
