P5HEN 168 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 well out today for a little walk with my pup and my pal and his new whip pup, all was well they was running about playing and coursing each other, but after a while my pup changed his attitide and started to "really" course the whip and with it being a bit more sharper in the turns he couldnt catch it and started growling and gave a couple of little barks any advice to help me with this problem? it was also his 1st time out with another running dog cheers p5hen.

Don't panic! they was playing at first ideation, but i saw his attitude change and he really started to gun for it Aye mate, running dogs, terriers etc . . . . play hard. You should see our pack, when they are larking about, lots of coursing, and some epic take downs, and wrestling matches. Just get him out plenty and let him socialise, itwas probably a wee bitof frustration coming out as well, which is natural. A child would be the same. Quote Link to post
Johnny5 2 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 I would have them play with something else chase something else other than each other.maybe they can learn to problem solve together or work as a team. Lhave them together also in places where their not using their prey drive on one another. It most likely is them just playing and playing in that fashion could really help tone their skill and body for that type of action Quote Link to post
Adam_Chuck 256 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Probs just playing mate. All my dogs and mates dogs play together but we know when it gets a bit rough and when to step in before it escalates. You will know your own dog and when its type of play is turning a little serious. Quote Link to post
