>So, do you try this on your own, or do you use a fully trained haggis
hound to herd them? I tried chasing them on foot, but I was knackered
after half an hour. A properly trained haggis hound, (or Hoond if you are
Scottish)  is a great asset, although the only professional trainer I know
of is Angus Dougal McKilty of Auchtermauchty, and he is well into his
eighties, so the supply may dry up, as his son, Campbell was killed
tragically in a Sporran fitting accident.
