What makes a good dogman

[lofti 579]

a good dogman owns a bullx with a massive head.

A good dog man,Would be a good horse man if he kept horses,A good stock man if he kept cattle.Its a keen eye to see what a animal is saying without speaking,A understanding of how a animal might be thinking.And while a dog cannot pick its owner,a dog can pick a "dog man" out of a crowd.

I've read a couple of topics recently questioning what makes a good dog etc.... At the end of the day, I feel it's the owner who moulds the dog. Unfortunately for the dog he can't chose his owner and any short comings in his training will be his fault. So the question I ask, in your opinion, what qualities make a good dogman?

 

 

a man that firstly aquires the particular dog for his needs taking into account the ground and quary he intends to hunt,once his mind is made up the pup should then be sourced from good stock,hopefully, looked after appropriately,good kenneling well fed and socialised,plenty of fuss in domestic surroundings and in the public domain,exercised to the extent of keeping it tired but not over doing it ,trained to a good standard,introduced to the field slowly then assesed on its character,willingness to learn, capability for its age,how far to take it and move on or indeed hold it back etc.

to be exited and praising on its progression but willing to take a step back if needeed and not to move on quickly when faults are obvious,to praise when right to be fair but firm when wrong.

after all this the bond is already there and hopefuly two minds start thinking as one and the future partnership is beginning to form,at least thats what i strive for although not always easy depending on the circumstanses,taking on an older dog point in case,something like that anyway as im pissed,but sounds about right.

on the other hand,here we go

a bloke thast doesnt ask his mates what he should call his dog,a names a fecking name,there is no right or wrong as long as the recall is in place 100% who cares what you call it.

its injured to the extent where you have not got a clue,go to the fecking vet dont ask me.

percentages,to late its now yours be done with it,if you didnt know you should not have bought it.whats the point of asking its potentia/capabilitiesl now

training,tips yes, but working it with major faults,ie recall, take a step back,why the rush,get it right first time iliminate the hasstle,if it dont come back you dont want it back

 

said to much shite already,all of the above and probably a lot more but hey this is what i try and stick to in a round a bout way ,off for another

A good dog man has a kennel full of well trained dogs that everyone is jealous of but are to macho to admit it...........

a good stock man wether dogs horses etc ,can get the very best plus abit more watchmans paragraph ounds right .its no coincidence the best animals seem to pop up in the hands of the same kennels feeding rearing we can all aclaim to get right ,fielding a dog and not ovrermatching etc seems to be a weakness in a lot of the lurchers kept always has been ,getting in to the dogs mind and also allowing the dog to become acustomed to read the master allowing the animal to grow in mind body and limb ,and of course the man lady etc ,has to be totally comitted to the cause o.c.d.comes to Ihave had the pleasure of seeing over the yrs some cracking lurchers of the all round type and they all had one thing in common good handlers one on one living has part of the family .atb hunters androll on next season .bunnys,
