jcm 2,327 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Well since iv getting my pup from the age of 6 weeks, iv put alot of time into him with recal, retrive, not pulling on the leader while walking introduced him to ferrets and lamping and sending him into cover, which have all been sucsessfull and altho he is just under a year has the makeing of a great dog.one thing that i have never learnt him was sit and stay. which has now been covered in a day and at every chance givin i give him the sit and stay comand in which he will not move a muscle untill called whichwill be be a good comand around the rabbit warrens as ferreting with the dogs is becoming a favorite pass time with the dogs to me. now already hung up the lamp for this season im gunna go over all of the traning again with the girlfriends dog as a carnt put up with a disobediant dog [bANNED TEXT] out in the field or at home the sit stay and recal is covered with her pup but not the retrive so its gunna keep me busy over the summer months and pixtures of the dogs in the sun will be expected. all the best with your pups if you are bring any on ready for next season, pictures of your future hunters welcome Quote Link to post
