samstorm 34 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 sharp tug on lead if it even glances at 1? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charliehunter100 22 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) just get him round as many sheep as you can letting him no its wrong to even glance at them. or use him on them and fill your freezer up with the fresh lamb around at the min!!

Cold Ethyl 63 Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Ive been incredibly lucky with my two they just never bothered with sheep.Zack was only 4 months when i got him and he didnt know what sheep where and hes half saluki but never a problem.Bitch had done some working so may well have been taught young but she knows fine well not to even look and general doesnt really bother at all but shes good tell her its an isnt and she stops.Before you worry too much take him on lead through the field and see whats the reaction if he looks give him a sharp dig in the ribs and tell him isnt or such like and im sure being young and willing to please he wll oblige Quote Link to post Share on other sites
