youg bitch over shooting on turn

[salukixgrey 779]

got a young bitch here that i took out lastnite, her first run was doubled up on a big rabbit and did really well very tight to it, was only a short course cause it was by the hedge when they got to it. second run i ran her single handed and she got straight to it but was striking and over shooting on turn and had to work hard to get back to it. did this about three times in course and game made it to cover... do you think its cause shes just green?or over keen? or could it be bad balance? never had this problem with my other bitch in her first season, i only want the bitch to run local on lamp as i usually run daytime but i do want the best out of my dogs, just wondering what your thoughts would be on this and if you have exsprienced this before, did they come good ect? thanks

shes a saluki lurcher back to a saluki lurcherxgreyhound, very fast bitch and keen as they come, maybe like you said its the extra greyhound in her, she picked up the lamp first time out so im happy about that, but couldnt help thinking if that was my other bitch puss would have been dead.

Running two dogs on a hare, on the lamp !!! Oooooohhhh, the purists are going to be all over you, like a bad rash !! LOL !! I expect it's just 'cause she's young, mate; she'll tighten up with practice.

 

Cheers.

the dog will learn to run and strike better if you run her on its own on bunnies nothing better for getting a young dog going put plenty in front and the dog will start to get in the swing of things in its own head on its own and not watching what the other dog is doing atb with her mate troter

no how you feel mate, im just gonna stick with her mate the boys that i was out with just reckon she was over keen, but shes a clever bitch round home, more brain than my other dogs, just hope she can use it in the field were it counts. shes well bred plenty of speed so hopefully she will come good. she aint the type of salukix to hold back she was trying the whole time so im happy about that.

The dog sounds fast and very keen

 

A few busy nights out and the dog should steady up when slipped.

 

Mine used to go up the beam like a greyhound out of a trap.Now he trots up nice and steady unless the rabbit starts its run before he gets there.
