Just trying to get the dog used to the ferrets

[Kay 3,709]

I have been trying to get the greyhound bitch used to the ferrets, slightly better than when she first arrived when she saw them as prey , she no longer races out the back when there playing & stalks them

Just a few pics of her nosing at them this morning

 

silly girl wouldnt leave a wasp alone so got stung

Not a appy bunny

She will never be broken to them 100% but at least she is not ripping at the mesh trying to get to them , i have muzzled her & held one by her with someone holding her collar just incase but she wont ever be totally trustworthy

She is 4 years old so i think to have got her to this stage is pretty good as her previous life was chasing mechanical hares or anything that moved basically , she is very devious , the males just buldozes his way through everything, she is all sweetness & light then once she knows your guards down she will lunge , she mainly does this if she spots a smaller dog while out walking , but i learned the hard way when i first got her & she did the getting her head out of her collar trick in a split second , learning curve well & truly learned

 

I take no chances with her now , i can tell now when she will start to play up by how her body tences so she gets the lead noosed round her neck like a choke chain , she cant get her head out of that , she has livened me thats a fact

You can see her battling her inner demons in some of those photos Kay!

 

"I'd love too, but I'll get in the shite!'

I dont think she will ever be broken to them, perhaps just tollerate them in the run , she is a little better than when she first arrived here

At one time I used to like those chicken BBQ crisps, but I got bored with them and cant look at a packet now, perhaps if you fed Madge enough ferrets she might get bored eating them, just a thought
