DogMagic 461 Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Success mate. If he finds a rabbit in the bushes and has a good chase make sure you give him plenty of fuss and he will do it again. Next time you see he is onto one and following a scent say "get on boy" or "find him" or whatever you say. After a few times he will associate that phrase with searching and will search everytime you say it. Plenty of praise when he does what you want. Keep it play for him though. If you have problems get out and hide a few dead rabbits about the place then take him for a walk and let him find them. Plenty of praise when he does find them and away you go. Quote Link to post
