paulus 26 Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 at a guess started too young. Ran at rabbits he carnt get near. got the idea it carnt catch them. got a bit older and a bit fitter, came across a hare squatting in the middle of a field, caught it. has never seriosly ran a rabbit again and probably never will. its been happening for years. in all honesty youve got whot youve made.

merle24 61 Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 (edited) What breeding is the dog ? does it have collie or saluki in its breeding ? Sounds like youve gave the dog to much work at a young age and at the wrong time of year, to much cover about, dog misses to many to cover gets pissed, hes know a very clued up young dog. its funny that he will still run hares thou, thats why i ask about the breeding. alot of the time its the hares they jack on.
