My Pup Ferreting

[iceman001979 1,316]

Bring him out on his own most pups dont want to come back because off the other dogs.Am not one for letting a dog grab them in the net thats your job.The dogs job is to catch the ones that slip the nets.Give him few runs 1st dont put any nets down and let him watch the ferret go in and rabbits come out he sound catch on bets luck

Take him on his own

 

Treat it as a normal days ferreting

 

Net up: anything that escapes through net or unseen bolt hole gives the dog his chance

 

Same routine everytime you go out .

 

You done the training now its down to time in the field

i have a dog about the same age and he had his first rabbit the other night it wasnt so much a run as the other dog done all the work and turned it towards him but he nailed it and done the lap of honour with it but gave it up when the other dog was out the way

all the best mate, got mine her first 2 the other night, i thought she'd bugger off with them, but she walked about 5 or 10 meters away stopped and held it just waiting for me to come get it, in future i'll want it retrieved but you might be surprised mate he might catch and do the same thing and not go off with it
