A Few Pictures Of My Pup

[shepp 2,285]

Hi people, I just thought i'd put a photo of my pup on. She's four months old now and she's line bred fell collie greyhound working out around 50/50, from collie johns last litter, who used to get on here.

She's really smart when I take her to puppy classes she learns stuff as quickly as the retriever types there (don't take the piss I feel a bit daft there but they come up with some good training tips)

One thing is I can never wear her out so she really is a full time dog, would'nt swap her for anything though.

I see one thing they dont teach her in obedience classes is not to chew shoes.

Good luck with with the pup Andy, I used to teach training classes, they can come in handy for socialisation and goodtips. There are some very good trainers involved in local dog clubs........some crap too mind.............

Cheers Simon, yes I find the classes really useful, the softly softly approach it uses suits my pups temperament really well.

Giro, John got rid of his cable tv which he used for internet some months back, I call him now and again and he's fine. He said he'll probably get back on here around September time.

Different methods for different temperaments, I prefer dogs that need a pinch collar, check chain and a whip and chair....

Hey shepp you must be pround of your pup, stunning looking bitch.

 

Whats you plans for her going forward?

[shepp 2,285]

Yes she's a good pup and yes John certainly puts alot of time in with his dogs, very much a purist for his collie greys.

I'm really just teaching her the basics like staying, sitting, coming back quickly on command and jumping but not up people . She spends alot of time with me just out and about in the van and plenty of walks.

She hunts up scents of rabbits and fox but i don't let her get to chase them, i'll probably start her at around a year old on the lamp.

She needs alot of patients with training because she is a bit of a bugger but can't be shouted at so there's alot of biting my tongue at times it seems to be paying off though.

I thought I'd put up a couple of my mates pup, he's the litter brother to mine, he's got a great temperament and looks good too.
