chartpolski 24,119 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I admire a man and dog that can TRULY work without a slip ! I was out last night, local, just me and two of the dogs. I worked them individualy, from the slip on the way out; but on the way back I had them off the slip. They stay within 5' to10' of me, and looked down the beam.... until there is something in the beam, and then they are OFF !! LOL !! So I wouldn't consider that "working without a slip" ! but as I say, well done to those who can TRULY work a dog without a slip !! Cheers. 4 Quote Link to post

Chart i used to be able to run my collie lurcher in the company of another dog but if a hare was being run and it came towards us he'd pick it up more often than not. Wouldnt work 2 dogs of the slip now though. Singlehanded only for me. All the best. Quote Link to post
