Calling Dogs Off Quarry?

[whin 463]

calling back has is advanteges or if im lamping i just switch lamp of , or if your after qaurry and only a certain type you can hiss them in , two ,some qaurry you cant eat sell so its a wasteful fite so telling them leave or giving them a row benificail ,it has its good pnts in sheep country not the first time ive saw a big set of eyes in athe side of a wood a good way away and your think game or not game ,as once there of hard to get them back ,if you cant control a dog when there allsorts about then can be afecher of a nite ,a wee bit control goes alng way ,i think peole get mixed up once there hot on a chase there gone but ite stopping them the instant the make a dash a shout etc is a handy thing if they liaten or wistle ,especaily if there hyped up with other dogs out a walk with you at times

cant call my 2 off and have to use a stick most of the time. my little whippetx thats at my mother can be stopped from running after cats but that took 3 years to get the

My old saluki cross would let go on command and could be stopped from running ( as long as he had not already set off ) but he was one of a kind when it came to obedience. I dont think my young dog will be the same.

Interesting.........Why would any of you guys spend time and effort on training your dog to stop chasing, whats the benefit?. I understand after the catch and you get there but during the course what is the reason? Just wondering if some of the guys who say they have "trained" dogs to stop mid course have really just got dogs that were giving up but "training to stop" sounds better?.....

I once had a dog that i could call off quarry mid chase, i never trained her to do it, she just did. I found out that she did when one day a course started to edge close to a road and i panicked. She was a fantastic dog and i never needed to question her commitment, she was only ever used on rabbits though. Opened up a few more oppertunities for me as well, as i could get on land, catch a few rabbits and disapear sharpish

If you work your dog on land near roads being able to call it off mid run is something you have to work towards it does take a bit of time and effort but is no more difficult than stock breaking of all the dogs that I"v been able to call off none have ever jacked or pulled at a hedge and all of them have had their lives saved by calling of roads .

i dont work my dogs near roads if i do

do when no cars on the roads

when on the chase not a hope in hell, to release quarry yes, also selective hearing being a problem, my old bitch on the short walk (around 2miles) she will go in the rough one end and i wont see her again till the other after she has checked every bush, blade of grass, if i shout in a normal tone, but if i shout in an angry tone she will appear from somewhere show me shes there and feck off in again, the same bitch which does my box in will hunt up the first run of each night out, and cannot be called back, after that shes fine,

Can run my bitch without a slip and if she is next to me i can call her back, with my dog no chance, and no chance if either are running a rabbit........

[fast dogs 51]

it was a good run for pup she got it to with a little help of my bitch

i can't call mine off,but theres nothing quite like slipping a dog just before you hear a dull noise and see a lanny or tractor come round the corner.

 

those times i wish i could.

Work my dogs off slip when alone and can control them but in full flight no. Turning of the lamp works fairly well and I've never needed a breaking stick although some times I wished I had one "preban" (never written that before)

Is this thread about calling a dog off during a chase or getting a dog to leave something alone once you've arrived and want to take charge? There's a world of difference IMO.
