jackers !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Adam_Chuck 256]

Jackers....a dog tight on a hare when the hare goes through a gate or sheepwire fence n the dog stops its a jacker and shouldnt be brought home.a good dog should bust hedges if tight on a hare.full salukis run on the fens n then brought to ireland are notorious for this thats why their breeding whippet into them.

Is it a jacker or lack of experience around different obstacles ?

j as in jackers is the tenth letter of the alphabet what comes to mind is joke!!! as in the people who refer to there dogs as jackers passing on your own bad management and inadequacies is just that joke!!!

[DeniseBrophy 42]

each and every dog is individual and should be treated as such !!! making a blanket statement asJACKERS! is the JERK1!!!!!!!!! slippin the lead !!!

[desertbred 5,490]

Every owner should understand and know the capabilities of thier dogs, obviously some dogs dont have heart for the job but some that are labeled jackers are put to the slip out of condition and in general poor condition then when asked to dig deep they come up wanting this is down to the wasters who cant manage thier dogs or get the best out of them

[DeniseBrophy 42]

as with every aspect of the dog exaggerating the dogs good points and ignore the owners unwanted points !

[Giro 2,648]

Do you belive every dog that fails due physical or mental issuse is blameless and the owner would be at fault ???

 

I Think thats pish myself, whats your rational ~ theroy behind, "as in the people who refer to there dogs as jackers passing on your own bad management and inadequacies is just that joke!!! "

 

If a dog is usless, you cant fluff that up anyother way.

 

If its injured thats a different story or been push beyond reasonable limits, entered in correctly and over matched. Then I belive the handler would be at fault.

we can talk for a year about this subgect JACKERS some good points made

 

i dont fault a dog for not geting true gates mabe gate bars are very close

wire mabe double //double hedge give a dog fare play

 

what i would say is a jacker a dog or bitch that runs 1 to 2 mins in big open [ie fen] land and pull s for no reasons

but we could give it second chance agan may have pulled a mussel etc BUT if he does it agan on big fen well thats him looking good home

ive seen red featherd saluki cross bitch run a hare for the best part of 6 min 5 yards behind hare never made one strike just run and run and run and bitch collapse

how would one call that ???????????????????????

a collie cross

[mucky paws 495]

an over used word is jacker, normally to cover the inadequacies of the owner or to justify the need to get rid so as to make room for the next wonder cross. ive a dog here that will run himself to death before he will pull up or give in, does that make him a jacker ive got an old dog aged 10 who`s lost all his pace, does that make him a jacker ive a young dog here, who, when aged 12months couldnt catch a poatage stamp in a postbox, did that make him a jacker preban ive seen dogs that didnt like the sharp end but were mustard on hares, did that make them jackers i ve also preban seen dogs that excelled on teeth and hoof but couldnt hold a feather to a good winter hare, did that make them jackers as i said a word thats very over used

no if a dog is up working his quarry,and for what ever reason pulls off,now be it lack of heart or wind,,,,thats a jacker youll give it a chance adog can pull a musel,but do it a second time his gone

[storm323 191]

Jeff20 did that red feathered bitch every make a catch? I've seen pups run behind rabbits and not wanting to pick it up just the dog showing its inexperience?

[jeff20 14]

she was not mine i just seen her run when irish lad came over

 

i think she was 2 x //// wasent inexperience of being trained she was well coursed

 

it was inexperience of how to pace her self on fen after that run she was put back in van

i would not call it jacking ??? or cy

she wasent able to stand up
