Just get a rabbit skin and wrap it around a small normal retrieving dummy or something similar and you're sorted....bit of a no brainer really....

You can stitch a pelt round a small juice bottle and half fill it with sand

For pups... wrap a rabbit skin round an old pair of socks... and tie some string round it.... nice and soft....

 

And as they get a little bigger.... just wrap the skin around a gundog dummy or similar and again...tie with string...

 

Job done....

They are seldom needed, a dog will chase and retrieve a tennis ball,a rolled up sock,a cuddly toy etc. etc. with the same gusto.As soon as you attempt to make things more complicated than they need to be,the training suffers.

im with morton on this, in all years iv had dogs an been bunny bashing iv never used a dummy or fur, use a tennis ball it helps with strike aswell at same time, then when ready move straight onto a bunny in a net or a mixy bunny, aint no hurry
