Yapping dogs


Recommended Posts

I have read a few threads about people having had a dog that yapped. do you think it's down to the dogs frustration when chasing or down to the way it's been raised. And can they pick it up off a terrier who gives tounges when in the bushes ect?

a lot of lads have beddy/whippet/grey types for example and the yapping is all to frequantly mentioned amongst them,only seen two work myself and both yappers,they cant all be shite dog men so must be a common trait from the beddy side,neither of the two i seen work was with terriers so no reason for them to pick up bad habbits both were lamping dogs,shear frustration,who knows but not for me,been put off by the whole idea of getting one :thumbdown:

Thinking about it a dog is 90% wolf and it works in packs i.e ofther dogs or people so when the dog chasing after a rabbit, fox, hare and it cant get to it it sarts yapping so what it is doing calling for the pack for help it not all ways down to the handler I could be wrong

I would'nt think any dog would be 90% wolf they've been dogs for thousands of years so not sure about any % of wolf to be honest.

I think it's frustration I've seen dogs yap for the first couple of runs then once they've caught settle down and shut up. But I also think bad entering too early on hard runs won't help I've only let my pup have a couple of runs on the lamp on far out squatters and she's silent. She has opened up twice in the day when the terrier's put rabbits out ( with a load of yap) and she can't get to it, frustrated. thumbs.gif

Wolves don't bark when hunting.

my dog never ever opened.Then he had a bad injury and was off for quite a while,i got him back to what i thought was fit and went for a shine,first slip he opened because he couldnt catch,frustrated and not fit enough!! Took him straight home and got him properly fit,next time he caught the rabbit with ease and havnt heard a yap since :thumbs:

Yeah yapping sucks. It has been said on here often, is superimportant that the first kills are easy. Game seen, dog loose, game caught, dog praised very much or rewarded, dog leashed. That should happen a couple of times. You have to be on top of it when it misses and at least distract it from the second annoying thing next to yapping: hunting up out of control.

 

My dog (5 years) gives a couple of yapps when he sees game for the first time in a long period but after the first kill it seems to realise that shutting up and stalking is better than only running and yapping.
