sadly lurchers will do what they do best if left to there on devices, kill things.

Im lucky in where i live and work my dogs, not much stock in the fields but they still need to be stock trained.Purely coinsidental but im out with 3 people today who have pups from my dog to do there first real bit of stock work. These are all pet homes who have asled me to show them how to go about introducing the pups to stock so they can move the pup on with its training.

 

Snoops: i feel for you chap, nothing worse than being let down by someone whos a mate and then you are left holding the bits and pieces afterwards. :no:

It seems to be a very sad fact in this sh*tty world that the more you put yourself out for people the more they crap on you.

 

Having said that every now and then along comes someone fantastic who makes it all worth while: I'm talking dog rescue here, but the principle's the same.

 

I hear what your'e saying Snoop, but don't give up on decent mates completely: just tie them down, interrogate them and get them to sign on their lives before you put yourself out for them!.
