  6. yeah i know what your saying but at what point do you say ok enough is enough its not working, as i say the pup is 5 month old tuesday. id hate to get to 12 month and realise its not gonna be a working dog and have to find a home for it at that point. i think the next couple of months will tell me everything i need to know. thanks
  7. pup is, deer/grey-saluki/grey x collie/grey bit of a mouth full. can be hard training 2 pups, when im training them i do it 1 on 1 cos they just wanna play otherwise, do that once a day for hour or so. other 3 times they just get walked/run about been laid off so there getting out 4 times a day, they dont know how lucky they are. lol

  9. the pup is 5 month old this coming tuesday. well from what people say the runt can turn out as good as anyother in the litter so i guess more work is needed. ill take him out 1 on 1 from now on see if i can get out of his scared state. i dont want to get rid because he's the better of the two. just everytime he gets touched its terrible. see what he's like in a month or so, thatks all, ill keep updating. many thanks for your replies
  10. hi every one, ok well i got 2 pups from a litter, a bitch which i chose and a dog runt of the litter that i took on because it could not be re-homed. not the bitch is fine, brilliant dog, but the runt is really stand off ish, when i take dogs out for a run about it just stands back and does nothing, every now and again it interacts with the other dogs, and then when its time to get him on lead he runs off and wont come, when i eventually get him to come to me i hold him while i get lead round him but he helps like he's being battered, and i mean yelps. sometime i just let go because it sounds

  12. i have 2 lurchers both just over 4 month old, i take them out 3 times a day 1 big walk, were out about 45 mins they run about and fetch and basically tire them selves out, then 2 light walks 10 - 15 mins a time, mine live in my cellar and this also prevents them shitting everywhere aswell as getting them out for good exercise. i think what i do is fine, they thrive off it. love chasing the ball and sprinting about.. think you'll be fine with that,
  13. hiya all, well this seems to be a topic with alot of mixed results, veg or no veg, raw eggs or not, cooked mince or raw. i suppose alot is personal preference and what your used to. but surely there is a good stable diet everyone agrees with. i give my 2 lurcher pups 1 lb of cooked pet mince each per day (from butchers bit of everything) give them that in the morning then dry biscuits are always in there bowls. this ok? should i be adding veg? if so cooked or raw and when?, i.e how many times a week just after some basic advice on whats best to give them a good start in life.
  14. sight hound, hortaya borzaya. pack dog, closely resembles the wolve.
  15. ive been teaching my pups retrieve since they were 9 wk old, there 16 wk old now and still do it... about 3-5 retrieves a day is what i do, keeps them interested. what i do is sit infront of there kennel as they always run back to that, so they get used to running back to me, i can now do it in open fields and they come straight back. get an old sock, tie some string to it, swing it about to get them interested, release it, as soon as they pick it up call them back. dont be surprised if they run about all over first few tries, this is fun for them, but keep calling and they will ev
