Needless to say that it bit him on the nose.... always be sure your dog has vaccinations lol. In any case I was surprised we found anything in knee deep water and mud. Most of the rats are far gone and we have pretty much squeezed most of the rats out of this farm. Zippi is a wonderful dog to work with and I was glad I got to go home after a few years and work her again. Apparently ratting is like riding a bike she took no time in instructing me where to dig and where the rats are. Even underwater, I am always amazed by a dogs nose, she could sniff them out. Doodles was cold and soaked ( as was I ) and got bit on the nose but he still gave the dead rat a what for and a good shake after it was dispatched. We may have some issues getting his confidence back but we all have to get bit on the nose once.
