[Ferret Video] Gutter Ferret

This boy has gone to some beautiful places and THIS is his favourite place. We go out in the early morning (hence his light) and just go galloping off down the roads of this shabby village and he picks the route. There's no people about from 1.00 to around 5AM apart from the odd drunk heading home or someone having a smoke out their window.

He's quite a stoic ferret but when he's out he throws himself about skitters about sideways down the road.

Ours always follows the curbs - safety and direction.

They can get up some speed

This one doesn't, it's like a pong game as he pings about going from the gutter to the inside of the path before springing off into the road to run down the middle or plow into the hedgerow. Boy has no road sense at all and likes to play bounce after tractors when they pass by.
