Clipper 207 Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 if you take them both out together make sure the older dogs on the lead while pups off an running , keep pup away from game till next season , should be able to correct it , but will be intresting to see how it goes 1 Quote Link to post
Lurcher315 5 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 been doing the one on one off the lead, also walking them seperately sometimes, defo being kept off game for a while. As i said she wasn't intentionally put onto it as i'd never put anything under 10 months at least onto game. Usually wait until they are 1. Great advice, heres a pic of them... Quote Link to post

Lamping89 22 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 You are in charge of the Pup matey if you can't keep it on the lead or work out where she may get a few run's then you are onto a no brainer..she can whine all day long in the garden that will not make any difference or contribute to a yapper.. . To true my lil bitch whine's all the time as soon as it gets dark for 1/2 hours on and of but soon as we out on the lamp she has never yapped at all my mates use to do it just left it for a couple of months and brought it on on its own and is fine now Quote Link to post
