ill second that. some dogs grow out of it but most dont. my mate has got a laguna and it yapps like mad. i wont go out with i no more every rabbit in a 2 mile radius goes to ground after its 1st run its that loud.

what you need to do is start in on very easy rabbits. maybe even some ferreted ones and keep them and let go in a big field. they yap out of frustration.probably been started to young. you can stop them doing it

 

good luck

my bitch yapped a few times when she had watched the other dog chasing and when it was her turn she yapped while chasing but never really missed i put it down to she didnt want to watch and was really excited although i was worried at the time, she does yap if she put something up in the trees but ive heard a few dogs do it it was not on rabbits though it was hare(shot &retrieved)

Sorry no cure for it its some thing you will have to live with or find a pet home and for gods sake dont breed off it as IMHO it can be SOMETIMES passed on to offspring.atb dell
