Why Doesn't My Pup Look Ahead?


Recommended Posts

At six months its normal and certainly no problem, feck I was out last night exercising my 3 year old dog, there was a buck rabbit chasing around after a doe in the second field my bitch was straight on them the dog? Fifty yards back in the first field with his nose in a clump of grass! If I had a lamp with me he would have been by my side head up scanning as the beam came on. They learn through experience, he knows there are rarely any rabbits in the exercise fields so just potters and your pup will sooner or later see a bunny and give chase then will slowly learn when to put it head up and when to put it down.

Patience is key.

Puppies develop their long distance eyesight later than their other senses. Sense of smell is the most powerful sense at a very young age, and the only sense, apart from touch, that is present at birt

Yes really common....next time you spot something and you think your pup should see it too..get down on your hands a knees and take a look from the pups hight you'll be shocked how little you can see.

Feck me baw leve the lad alone ne asked a question as he did not no, the pup is just sniffing the world around it the new smells etc...it will put its orn game up if it hunts..atb

 

 

I have a 6 month old whippet and recently whilst walking him I have seen the odd bunny. However, he doesn't notice them as he is always too busy sniffing the ground. Is this common in young pups?

No mate, very rare. I don't think I've ever seen a young pup sniff the ground...... Seriously, is this what your asking??? Jesus f**k. The answers in the thread header!!! I fear for these young dogs on here.

Grumpy old man I only asked a question. Were you bullied at school?

Dunno why people are on here to give each other shit were all in the same game its about helpin each other owt oter than biting someones feckin head off atb with the dog mate i say : judd

You just come on here to give me shit? Ohhh the irony..... To be honest, aye here to help each other out but if you have a pup and it misses seeing a rabbit cos its sniffing, is that really something you need advice about? God help the dog when it needs guidance to jump or look down a beam cos it sounds to me the dog knows more than the owner. Sorry again OP guy, just ignore this too ;)
