salclalin 240 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 The dogs young,, sounds like it needs kills kills and more kills, will soon settle on the job. Spot On.The dog is still young and eager.It should soon Settle down.Had the same Problem with My Bitch at first.Now she never Pulls on the Slip.Patience is the Key.And never Hit the Dog.Bad Move in my Opinion.

airbourne 128 Posted November 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 She has had her fair share for her age last year she was only learning the ropes quite a few rabbits about then, not so many about this year and that could be a lot to do with it aswell, (frustrating) Quote Link to post

honesthunter 13 Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Hi all this is my first topic and hope you can help me out as i am a new member on the site. I have a 19 month old lurcher which is very keen on the lamp if anything is over keen, she will work all night no problem. The problem is has soon as i get her into the motor she goes from level 1 up to level 10 and whines like mad all the way to our destination and then pulls my arm out has soon as she gets out of the motor, all she has on her mind is RABBITS, she is colie x whippet x bull x grey. I can put up with the whining its the pulling thats the problem espeicaly when she sees the rabbit when you try to get closer before i lose her off. I have thought off getting a harness what are your thoughts. shoot the fecker , no mate get it on some heal work, day+night. forget the rabbits for a bit, go out with your gear on(lamp+bag .....) then when start walking, as soon as it pulls yank its head and say heal.If that dont stop it, do it again and pull the fecker of the ground.Ihad a bullx grey 26in 70lb, he was the same.stopped him pulling when walking around, but if he was going to be released on his quarry, he would pull then. So not as bad as pulling all night,you want some fire in there belly. bird that's some old school thinking dude, its all basic obedience. stopping walking whenever it pulls is more effective than yanking its head around...with any dog. the dog works out he gets nowhere by pulling. rather than just putting up with occasional, most probably seemingly (to the dog) random yanks from its owner. every walk you take the dog on should be like that until you need to do it less and less and eventually never. airborne have a look at some no force dog training tips, they seem to work better than beatings.
