yeti 84 Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 cheers pal for the advice she meant fcuking business she fcuking had hold of one trying to smash it into the ground what do you think of the electric collar do you think it will fcuk it up ? Your best bet would have been to stay and train her when & where it happen (if possible) Now......On the lead walk right up to the sheep, get them running so they catch the dogs eye, then every time she looks at them, lose your rag with her...don't mean beating the shit out of her, i pinned Khan to the ground screaming in his face ragging him when he caught one. Me angry scared him more than a kicking ever would. Too much beating can make a dog too scared to come back to you if it even 'thinks' you might be angry, and you will need to be able to recall it! But for any type of training to work you must do it for at least 5 consecutive days...if she looks, she gets told, rest of the time try to relax, go about your business as if she had never chased a ewe, but deliberately walk her into them, time and time again. Have a break walk well away from sheep, mooch about a bit and come back later when all may be forgotten. A long line works a treat with dogs which have never attacked, but if she has a taste for it, i would wait till after the initial training is working perfect. cheers moll and scent great advice Quote Link to post
scent 509 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 keep at him pal it will be worth it in the end .Nowt worse then the lurcher off the lead and not knowing what around the corner if you dont thrust him with live stock.I think jigsaw did a thread on breaking to live stock aswell it may be worth a look Quote Link to post
lola_digga2010 0 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Like I say mat mine will trot about 10yrds n come back but I know av walked trough a yard full and she never bats an eye maybe me being paranoid about her running toward them av never let her have a chance but I know she wouldn't go any further if I call her back maybe it's just noisy and wants a closer look coz I know if my bitch has her eye on something and wants to kill it there would be no callin her back Atb ld2010 Quote Link to post
