Guest bluemink Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 you could let her watch an experieced dog or even double her up with it. or get her to retrieve a rabbit skin dummy. Quote Link to post

firstrike 21 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Just stick at it, the law of averages dictates that the more she chases the more is the likelyhood she will catch one. Quote Link to post

wirral countryman 2,110 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 you need to say how much bull is in the dog,some dogs with bull are just too heavy to run well,also don't run it on golf courses or short grass as it will have no chance,try it ferreting with someone you know let it feel a few in its mouth ,it will soon sharpen it up Quote Link to post
wild rover 548 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 need a bit of help on my with my lucher she chase rabbits but she not chaching them.so what can i do to train her she 13 moth old . so bit help plz thanks j The penny hasnt dropped yet mate, I hope you have just chose your words mistakenly, I want my lurcher to chase and catch rabbits, then to retieve them not kill them, hopefully they retrieve them live and are then dispatched. Some lurchers if allowed to rag or play tug of war can turn out hard mouthed or will rag every rabbit caught to kill it, teach it to retrieve and chase a skin dummy but not to munch and rag. It will come keep at it, all the best. WR. Quote Link to post
Sorley x 32 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 PATIENCE - GIVE IT TIME She is still young, don't listen to those that say otherwise If you want to stack odds, walk right up to sitters that are well out in a field on the lamp. Quote Link to post
