witton 6 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 (edited) Here are some pics i got of the pup retrieving a ball straight to hand, im going to get her retrieving from water and thought that this puddle would be ideal to start her off. And one or two more i took while out. Edited February 27, 2007 by witton Quote Link to post
TOMO 26,754 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 WELL DONE MATE NICE TO SEE. BUT I THOUGHT SOME GREAT DOG MAN TOLD YOU THAT SALUKI AND BULL CROSSES WONT RETRIVE . GLAD TO SEE YOU TOOK NO NOTICE. TOMO Quote Link to post
witton 6 Posted February 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 (edited) All it takes to recall her is 1 "come" and she comes running instantly as long as there are no other dogs around, in which case it takes a bit more incouragement but i am working on that Jumping is the next major thing to work on, she jumps when she wants but nothing over 2 and a half feet and not on comand. Ill fix that over the next couple of weeks. Thanks David Thanks tomo Dont worry about them i didnt take any notice anyway As you can see she is nothing like misty, she loves water There will be no messing about waiting for her to cross streams and rivers David Edited February 27, 2007 by witton Quote Link to post
skycat 6,173 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Well done: nice to see someone putting the training time in. She still looks as though she has quite a bit of growing to do (knobbly wrists still). I wouldn't ask her to jump more than she's already jumping until she's finished her growing as landing from a height can damage the growing joints. Quote Link to post
witton 6 Posted February 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 I’m getting her retrieving from water really just as a bit of fun, it will help make her an all round dog as well, if I ever need to get shot ducks of water I wont need to swim I want her as a lamping dog mainly but I also want a half decent daytime dog so I’m putting a lot of effort into her to get her as highly obedient as I can David Well done: nice to see someone putting the training time in. She still looks as though she has quite a bit of growing to do (knobbly wrists still). I wouldn't ask her to jump more than she's already jumping until she's finished her growing as landing from a height can damage the growing joints.

Guest Lurcherbitch Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Brilliant, am enjoying all the puppy training threads as i am bringing mine on so it all helps. Mine goes berserk when she is out...she really runs round like an idiot, She jumps 4ft walls, runs every dog on the field ragged. Should i try calm her down?? she really is knackerd when we get back home. She is 7mths. Well done: nice to see someone putting the training time in.
