steve2507 522 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Little tip ive gave to other lads .....crouch down level with the dog and see if you can still see it ,then judge when to run the inexperienced dog as it gains confidence and experience and trust you will be able to send it down a blind slip atb steve Quote Link to post

neems 2,406 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Some proper pratts on this site. Sometimes lampers can see summat a dog can't, so a lamping dog should be able to run on command, running the beam we call it, tell a dog summats there light up where and dg will lamp. What about squatters? Surely a dog that only runs what it can see will miss squatters? Some know alls know fook all.... The guy with the dog, don't forget tht dog is new to you, new to quarry an new to lamping, keep doing what your doing, keep bonding with the dog, walk up the squatters whilst hissing an the dog will start to trust you. Don't go slippin on nowt thoas dog will not trust you. Practice makes perfect or as close as damn it, keep at them and all the best with the youngster. Pm me if you have anymore probs exactly hot meat.easier seeing a rabbit when your 6ft tall as apposed to 2ft That's why I train my dogs to walk on their back legs when I'm lamping. Pure laziness to not train a dog to walk like that and just expect it to see game on all 4s. Quote Link to post
