Prey Drive

[fieldsman 51]

Funny question .. . . . . but has anyone ever had a dog that had a ridiculously high prey drive? Perhaps too high?

Yes rip Tink

 

 

What breed mate?

Whippet dog broke his neck running a rabbit through trees just didnt slow the gap was way to small for him to fit through same dog ran a hare on the a17 for a full 2 mins no pads left but the next day while talking to a local farmer he some how pulled the front window of the car down an ran and caught another hare the mess had to be seen not many dogs would have wanted to walk let alone run IMO TO much drive makes for a short working life this dog was also crazy when he came across fox,s he was,nt realy big enough for them but it didnt stop him.

to be brutually honest the best of dogs have prey drive,iam ex army and they really only pick dogs with high prey drive,prey drive mostly comes from dogs with long history of parents from working background, and its a great asset if its harnessed properly

Cheers mate, round here also used to insult people,i never even knew the word was in the dictionary until now but ive done my home work!Word History: Ditto, which at first glance seems a handy and insignificant sort of word, actually has a Roman past, for it comes from dictus, "having been said," the past participle of the verb dcere, "to say." In Italian dcere became dire and dictus became detto, or in the Tuscan dialect ditto. Italian detto or ditto meant what said does in English, as in the locution "the said story." Thus the word could be used in certain constructions to mean "the same as what has been said"; for example, having given the date December 22, one could use 26 detto or ditto for 26 December. The first recorded use of ditto in English occurs in such a construction in 1625. The sense "copy" is an English development, first recorded in 1818. Ditto has even become a trademark for a duplicating machine

Back on track, a good mate of mine and a member on here has a half cross bull grey, this dog is used for big game, round holes etc if you get my drift! His prey drive is emmense, lamping last season and after a long night and not much big stuff around and my bitch picking up all the bunnys, i persuaded him to run just one rabbit which of course he wasn't bred for and had never ran! I persuaded him to run one bunny and f**k me ive never seen a dog put so much effort and determination into a bunny, obviously i had seen him working bigger game and hes all the same but for the first bunny he was able to run. He hit the bunny flat out with one hell of a strike and rolled and rolled and rolled, as if he had hit a red un or a roe etc!

 

Oh dear...crossed wires I think!

Whippet dog broke his neck running a rabbit through trees just didnt slow the gap was way to small for him to fit through same dog ran a hare on the a17 for a full 2 mins no pads left but the next day while talking to a local farmer he some how pulled the front window of the car down an ran and caught another hare the mess had to be seen not many dogs would have wanted to walk let alone run IMO TO much drive makes for a short working life this dog was also crazy when he came across fox,s he was,nt realy big enough for them but it didnt stop him.

 

 

That's the kind of dog i was thinking about when i posted this. And funnily enough the dog that made me think is also a pure whippet.

[heart of wales 19]

Prey drive the word was invented for this dog

God do I miss him nothing would come between him and quarry,he was injured so many times in the day I ended up using him only at night.

A good mate who is dead now called him the white shark Because he reckoned the b*****d never missed nothing
