Guest FTBBTH Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 i start them young with just real small leaps and bounds mor like fun chase games over a a branch or something, build there confidence up, get them on stiles where they can use the steps to help them, gradually find neeter fences with no help as they hit about 7 month, then eventually they will just start jumping the barbed wire with ease, but as soon as they snag on the barbed wire, it will take a long time to get there confidence back atb FTB Quote Link to post

Malt 379 Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 My pup taught himself, I found that out when I came home found a shit in the hall way and baby gate was closed, so called pip and the little shite jumped over Mine learnt by jumping the baby gate. I progressed to getting him to jump the 4ft fence round the park at the front of my old place & he then progressed jumping to the 5 1/5 foot garden gate all by himself.. Quote Link to post
