30th July 2023 Over long distances… Bracken is a pretty green fern that blankets the land over long distances. It looks nice and the dogs don't mind. But nevertheless - bracken is a noxious weed. It is mostly found in upland areas of poor acid soil. Most animals will not eat it unless there is a shortage of their usual food. If not controlled, bracken spreads out over long distances! Nearly no bracken at Garsdale (Yorkshire Dales) where HectorKirk Gundog offers great training possibilities... ...over long distances... ...like this one: Daniel sends Fake for a "blind" down the scarp and up again!
