Get a squatter get as close as ya can let it get up slip the dog

I was being sarcastic mate. All this over-complication of starting off a lamping dog.   As the old saying goes "let the dog see the rabbit"

No rules what so ever when bringing on a pup as long as the youngster thinks its winning ....which is hard to explain on here ...make it fun and enjoyable when there young and build on there confindan

The only messer on here is crackers.

 

Should change his name to Jackers. Cuz he feeds Jackers and he breeds Jackers.

 

Sorry to the lad who's thread it is.

lol your the only jacker you messer... You take pics of other people catches talk the talk but can't walk the walk... All jackers go to muppets like you that keep them as pets... And spend more time on here trying be the thl answer book... AVOID AT ALL COSTS LADS... Trust me

Pisser. I'm off to bed now. Might put a working lurcher DVD on so I can see what it's really like.

 

Will you take me out one day and show me the ropes? Please?

 

I'm dying to see what it's like to go local and just get one or 2 runs and then go home empty handed :laugh: :laugh:

Agree with lurcher 83 ive always tried to come away and the end of a session with a youngster with a catch so thats the last thing on its mind when finnished ...like I say let them think there on top and winning and theres no hurry all pups come on and develop differantly whether it be lurcher or terrier

Getting back to the lad's original question - lurcher 83 has good advice; choose your rabbit carefully. You want a squatter as far from the hedge as possible. And mik's suggestion of finishing with a catch is a good one. I always do that with my youngsters - my current one very nearly caught, but not quite, on his first night out. Next night we went out he caught on his first slip so I packed up and went home there and then. I didn't want to run the risk of him then having more runs that he missed, but wanted him to remember clearly that he can do it.

 

The only other thing I would add is, if you can, not to start him off on short grass ie golf courses, rugby pitches, close-cropped by sheep etc. Rabbits go like s**t off a shovel on short grass and are far harder to catch than you think they're going to be. The ideal, for me at least, is winter arable with enough growth (about 4 inches or more) that the rabbits feel safe. That way they're more likely to squat (especially in the tramlines) and for some reason I can't explain even when they run they seem to be easier for the dog than on short grass. I suppose it's because short grass is a much smoother surface without the bumps and irregularities of an arable field.

 

All the best with it anyhow...
