rhodri 0 Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 What cross is the dog mate? Deerhound x, will sort out ferral cats so i know he has drive and he's hard-mouthed with rabbits and long-ears. He is stock broken but i kept him in with an injury for a couple of weeks and as soon as i took him out he went for a sheep, maybe i should keep him in for a while before going out next?

hullhunter 219 Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 jibber and chasing sheep have you had a working dog before? because by the sounds of it you dont have a clew what your doing. totally forget about hunting and get the dog stock broke PROPERLY this time. then get it back on the rabbits and leave the fox till next season when the dog is mature deerhounds take a long time to mature. then if it still is not doing what you want sell to someone who just wants a rabbit dog then get your self a good bullx.
