bigdaz 688 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Most people who don't allow or teach their dogs to jump state that it's to reduce the chance of injury and yes they do have a point. However a non jumping dog can also be injured trying to go through or under the obstacle so injuries can arise from either. With regards to non jumpers, at some point in their lives whilst pursuing game most will probably attempt a jump even when they haven't been taught, to my mind this is the most likliehood of an injury. In fact thinking back over the years most injuries I've seen occur through jumping were either young inexperienced dogs or dogs who hadn't been taught to jump. 4 Quote Link to post

It comes with the territory perhaps you should take up knitting if you over analyse everything like this......what do you think of dogs running flat out through woods? 2 Quote Link to post
J.DOG 1,355 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 My dogs jump everything from stock fences ,stone walls ,gates, dykes, even jumped a sheep anything that needs jumping my dogs will jump when in pursuit of quarry that's the one thing i can't control is what they jump and don't jump when chasing , that's for the dog to decide I wish I could control it.
