Lurcher Will Not Jump During A Chase


Recommended Posts

I am glad that the young bitch Tilly I have here can jump like a gazelle when in full flight because she is convinced that if she can't get over something whilst chasing quarry she can go straight through it ... She really is a do or die type of dog that gives me heart in mouth moments on a daily basis ..........

As long as you've taught that dog to jump small fences from 6 mths on etc that dog should be going over fences at 18 mth no problem // sometimes no matter how much jumping fencing you do with a dog some just don't have it in them to do it IMO were a live they have to jump . Yours in sport dogs that jump

Thanks for all the advice, very much appreciated.

 

I will keep at it and hopefully the penny will drop. I will be trying the tennis ball through the fence as well.

 

I'm out again at the weekend with the pugs so we will try again, ill try and get some pictures up.

 

Thanks again for all the advice

I wish mine didn't jump, he got caught on a fence 2 weeks ago, cost me £300 in the vets and he is off for the rest of the season. I would of rathered the rabbit got away :_(

i dont mind mine jumping to get over a fence when i tell it to but wouldnt be pushing it to jump while chasing quary because of this reason, when they are chasing there is not much care for anything else, id rather my dog pulled up and if a dog has to jump the fence its not preassuring the rabbit enough to hesitate and turn on fence line, i know the odd one will just go straight through regardless but id rather that was there to run another day than my dog been out of action because he got hung up on barbed wire

just the way i think i know some of you will disagree
