Leave the gralloch out for the dogs, that normally puts a stop to them
This is also my approach, I've had repeat offenders in the past and have left goodies (Rabbit, Squirrel or Deer intestine) for the dogs. It's never failed for me, either they fear the dogs have been poisoned or they don't like the mess that results from it.

yup that should just about sit you in the docks ,lose your F C and put you in the local paper .is there some sort of law for being that stupid , i dont think poisoning dogs by laxative is a good thing to do ,as iam sure thats what it would be classed as .you don,t have to kill something to be classed as poisoning..It might be worth a thought that fawns will be being born from now on and a sign on the gate explainnig this might appeal to her better nature ,and with it be light from 4 am onwards surely you can beat her out in the morrnings![]()
the bit about poisoning was aim at the chap talking out of his a** about laxative ,but i would also be carfull about leaving gralloch laying around i beleave you should buried if she complains to the fostresty they wont like that so be carefull ,i think you said its a big wood so you could go to a diffrent area, its a tricky one just remeber you are the one that has it all to lose .atbBerg as stated above i have no intention of poisoning anything as i do not want to loose certificate, I have explained to her about the mature doe in the ruff about to have young to which she sneared 'so what' i have also tried to beat her up, which i have done but she seems to walk them at first light, the earlier it gets light the earlier i hear her screaming at the dogs all the way up the road, so in relation to that - yes i can beat her out but only just and i get 10 maybe 15 mins of peace before she they all appear.
Or alternatively find a large amount of badger excrement, place it near the entrance, the dogs will roll in it guaranteed, she WILL have a lovely fragrant drive homemix a large dose of dog laxative in some offal or dog food and leave that out, she will have a lovely trip home if you can put it there after she goes for walkies.![]()
Locals regard our shoot as a doggie play area with dog poo being bagged and deposited in our pheasant bins. I cured it in a week with a few official looking signs on the gates which read... "Take care adder breeding experiment on this estate".
Are you able to position a trail cam at the gateway to keep an eye on things?latest update on the matter -
Didnt get up sat or sun morning so no run in, made it up on sat nite and no run in so all was going well till i went up last nite - the big chunky padlock on the gate has been all superglued!! couldnt get in!! very annoying!! cant say for sure it was the afore mentioned party but its an awful coincidence. Got in with some petrol and wd40 but had to go away and get it so spoiled my night as i didnt get to shoot.
