  1. Thanks chaps, going to take a bit of a diferent approach to it after some of your advise, I have a plan, here's hoping it works. Thanks again. D
  2. Had my dog about 9 months or so he's a deer grey x bed whip and he's about 15 months or so, ever since I've had him I've had problems when he's been left alone with maybe what could be deamed as sepparation anxiety, well time has passed n I thought it was getting better, I had the video camera out today as I'm going ferreting this weekend n I thought id video him when I leave n see how he reacts, well he whent mental biting at the bars n ripping t shirts etc, I'm very keen for him to be happy when I'm away, any proven methods out there? I've tried dap collars some time back n kong toys. Shall
  3. He's twelve months, brings a normaly dummy to hand then I give him a treat, he caught a few rabbits a couple months back n would just lick n bite them so I went back to basics, got the retrive better n better, maybe he's just doin it coz it's new to him, he's very obediant just gets exited, it's hard to explain but the more dangly bits hangin from the dummy ( that sounds bad) the more he plays rather than concentrates, any way of making the dummy more durable?? thanks chaps Dan
  4. Been gettin on very well with retrieve so I thought I'd step it up to a rabbit skin dummy, first throw he ripped it holds it down n licks it etc n does like a half over incoraged retrieve, any tips n advice, thanks Dan
  5. Thanks again for the advice chaps, really is adding to my dog placing these posts. ATB Dan,
  6. Thanks cooper, he's got good manners now, going to work the re call allot now n hold the rabbits, was going to have him out with the ferrets in a few weeks, is this not such a great idea, don't want to make things worse, I'm happy to hold him back for a while longer, want to do it all properly n end up with a great worker at the end, thanks Dan
  7. No does that work? I'm looking for a less involved method of fixing it but hey if it works for you! Bet you get through some jars, ha
  8. My dog just caught a rabbit in the field behind my house, tried to get him to retrive it but he just licks it n bites it, not sure if this could turn in to a bad habbit, it doesn't do the rabit meet any good, 12 months old, ATB dan
  9. Great advice there chaps, I can see that hunting up thing developing so it was well worth me posting on here, thanks again, have a great season. Think you guys have covered it but any further advice is well apreciated. ATB Dan
  10. Was just wondering with time and experience will my dog grow out of driving straight through the middle of groups of rabbits and on to nothing, he's caught a few rabbits in the last few months, no amazing runs though, he's also fine one on one with just one rabbit to focus on, he's 12 months and he's a deer grey x bed whip. Fast n well keen, atb , Dan
  11. Just bought my first dozen rabbit cage traps, just after a few tips for best results, got a pretty good grasp of the concept, just want to catch them all! Ha ha, cheers, Dan
  12. I use a good quality ply, make them myself on the saw at work, they last well n take me about 15 minutes to make 50, where are you in the country? D
