littlefish 586 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 How long have you had the dog? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hagar 5 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 If you paid good money dont give in straight away , try building his confidence up then see how he goes , a friend had a terrier that used to chase rats just barking and do nothing else lol eventually it killed one and never looked back , Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blackknight 14 Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 How long have you had the dog? only a week Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blackknight 14 Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) If you paid good money dont give in straight away , try building his confidence up then see how he goes , a friend had a terrier that used to chase rats just barking and do nothing else lol eventually it killed one and never looked back , he seem very puppyish at the moment.he acts like a 8 month old. might give a chance.

littlefish 586 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Not a dig at Blackknight, but how much would most people expect of a dog that has went through the experience of moving to a new handler and home? I would imagine the dog might need a while to settle into his new home and build some sort of bond with a complete stranger? I think if I had a strange dog for a week I would be more concerned with checking that it is stockbroken and able to respond to recall etc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GET THEM OUT (.)(.) 39 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 1st you should of asked to see him work, , i would personally keep him of them for a short while let him watch another dog do a few, we had a dog very similar, we slipped him doubled up and soon as we got there pulled him off and let him watch, it put alot of fire into his bely, and really pissed him of, after that he never looked back, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
