Tidying up on some training

[Dave C 63]

The Cocker X i sold my mate has been getting increasingly wilder in her hunting recently, so we decided to have a training day up the Dale and shoot a bit of Vermin as we went.

 

 

 

 

Retrieving a rabbit over the bridge

 

 

She is excellent on all aspects of Hunting and Retrieving Rabbit, but a little shy with the birds, this isnt much of a problem but with some encouragement she was getting a little better.

Her basic training seemed to come back when there wasn't much scent and her control when hunting was a massive improvement from the last time we shot over her.

The smallest rabbit came in handy for a bit of training with my pup Fern when i got back.

 

 

 

 

 

Her first time retrieving Fur, so i was over the moon.

It seems one step closer to getting her out hunting.

The cocker x looks a goodun, looks like she's coming on a treat, Fern is flying in her training mate, she's a credit to you

Thanks for the replys.

The Cocker cross, i had for about 6 months, put as much training into her, then sold her to my mate, she is a cracker and possibly the best dog i have seen pushing tight rabbits out of reed beds, my mate has let her training slip abit recently (i am sure he wont mind me saying) and she is hunting for her self a bit, loosing her head, but i am sure its nothing a bit of a refresher course wont fix.

Shes mainly Cocker with a bit of Beagle and Terrier in the mix.
