working english bull! 2 Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 (edited) Hi , i was just wondering what people thought was the best way to stock break a terrier? I am thinking of getting a new pup an was wondering what is the easiest way. My gsd was easy to do i let him sniff a few cows and sheep when he was a pup an he has never bothered with them since , but my Bull terrier on the other hand ,although I haven't had her from a pup to put in the work early , I think there is no chance of doing it now at the age of 4. So with the next pup which will hopefully be a plummer or patterdale i want to get it right from the off ! thanks. Edited June 28, 2010 by working english bull!

working english bull! 2 Posted June 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Tried that with my Rottie, by the time i climbed the fence he jumped he had peeled a sheep of the back off the herd an had it by the the throat on the floor. It lived by the way, I got to it in time, but it was impressive an scary all at once , prey drive just kicked in just like that been mad on anything that moves since rabbits, cows, sheep,cats, pain in the ass, limits the places you can walk them he was fine before then, so wanna get it spot on this time.

nat 8 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 We just took ours up to the farm and let him have a gd sniff of eveything. But he did used to chase the chickens not to kill them but cause when a chicken is chased it makes alot of noise and drama so he thought it was good, to stop him I put him in the chicken pen and made him follow me past the chickens and everytime he went t chase one I made him sit and stay by my side. He don't bother no more. Atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
