[lamping boy 2]

hi everyone i have two pure bred coursing salukis out of cruise lines both are bro and sis they are 8 month old and i havent had any experince with salukis before.I am wanting to know if any body has had pure bred salukis before and can give me any tips on how to train them.I also want to know is can salukis become good lamping dogs if the right training methods are used?my saluki bitch has a mind of its own and has a bit of a recall problem and very very timid how can i solve this?

Patience, patience, patience ! If these are your first running dogs, then I think you have picked the wrong breed, and trying to bring on two pups only doubles the problems ! What you have described is typical of Saluki's ! In the right hands, they can be great dogs; in the wrong hands, a nightmare ! And if you wanted lamping dogs...... you have made a big mistake !! O.K., the Saluki lads will say they can lamp..... but there are far better dogs for lamping than pure Salukis !!

Cheers.

no i have been lamping for nearly 10 years and have lamping dogs for the job.i got the two pups offered very cheap. salukis and saluki crosses

have always been my favourite breed but never actualy owned a pure bred it was something i have always wanted and finally got.i have had them from 12 weeks old the dog is coming on great but the bitch does not seem to be making progress at all im trying to train her with live stock but seems to be a bad listener wat would be the answer to train to stock

for a lad who's been in the game nearly a decade, your asking very novice questions,,that bitch sounds badly socialised,,

Unfortunately I don't really have time to give a suitable reply just now as am away to my bed and it's really more about thinking of the picture rather than individual problems. In the meantime have a look over on my Forum, there are plenty of posts giving general 'handling' advice from people who are actually running pures. I'll do my best to get back to you tomorrow with some of the ideas I have about handling them.

 

Regards

ALRIGHT MATE ITS A PITY YOU DONT STAY NEAR ME MY UNCLE OWNS A FARM AND I BREAK ALL MT DOGS THERE.

IF YOU KNOW ANY FARMERS REALLY WELL THEYLL PROBABLY HELP YOU OUT NO PROBS .

I TAKE MY DOGS INTO A PEN WITH SHEEP AND COWS AND LET THEM SEE THEM CLOSE PROX 10FT.IF THE DOG SHOWS ANY INTEREST I SKOLD IT VERBLY REAPEATING TILL IT STOPS EVEN LOOKING AT THE LIVESTOCK .WHEN THIS HAPPENS START MOVING AMONGST THE STOCK AND FOLLOWING ROUND THE PEN.AFTER A WHILE THE DOG WILL LOSE INTEREST ALL TOGETHER.AFTER A FEW VISITS THE DOG WILL BE FAMILIER WITH THE BEASTS AND YOULL BE ABLE TO WALK ROUND THE PEN DOG UNLEASHED AND PRCTICE RECALL REMEMBER NO MEANS NO WITH SALUKIS AND THEYLL NEED TO KNOW WHEN YOUR NOT HAPPY .ALWAYS PRAISE YOUR SALUKI .I HAVE TERRIERS AND LURCHERS ALL MY DOGS WHEN IGO TO THE FARM ARE ALWAYS UNLEASHED.WE HAVE SHEEP COWS DUCKS PEACOCKS GEESE GUINEAFOWL CATS ALL RUNNING FREELY IN THE YARD AND MY DOGS DONT LOOK AT THEM PERIOD.DOGS SHOULD NO WHAT THERE ALOUD CHASE AND NO ALWAYS MEANS NO WITH SAUKIS.YOULL NEED TO BE ONE ON ONE WITH YOUR WEE BITCH AND BRING HER OUT HER SHELL.IF YOU ASK A FARMER SOME WILL BE SIMPATHETIC TO YOUR PLIGHT.IT WORKS FOR ME GOOD LUCK.

Calm down chap. Your answer will come shortly.

 

Have another look at the replies. CP did not mention that your dog was badly socialised.

 

Owning a pure is a test of patience in the owner it's self, fail this and your whole training programme will too.

Hold on, mate !! Read back thru' the thread, and you'll see it wasn't me who mentioned "socializing" your dogs !!

soz about that mte ive mabe given everybody the wrng impression just i am struggling with my saluki bitch any advice is helpfull what i think is that she may be timid due to the background it came from but the dog is bein obedient.from what i have been told so far is that most pure breds are a nervous dog to begin with ther was a write up in the countrymans weekly where sum one lyk me had started with a pure bred and was struggling with the recall jst like me a lad had wrote about using a dried rabbit skin bt have tried and duzent work wat is the best way thats what i wanted to knw

 

cheers
