Beddy Whippet Retrieve Training

[fluff 409]

its not hard to get them to carry , but you can sicken them ,if your doing long runs and out all day for 2 or 3 days a week tp get a great fetching dog little and often till the fetch is the most important thing in his life , i was areal keen dog trainer at one time but , lost intrest a bit, got a good dog at moment fetch anything i taut him but he has got it in him , some dogs are natural , never had a terrier cross so dont realy no what there ability is for fetching but i think they can be trained like most dogs

all the best ,

Surely if a pup picks up a fault or a bad habit, the younger it is the better chance you have of correcting it????

Years ago had a lurcher "Rhia" best ive ever owned. No matter how much i tried to train her to retrieve wasnt interested tried balls toys dummies rabbit skin on dummies etc would just look at it not interested yet first rabbit she caught retrieved it straight back to hand & did so for rest of her life & would retrieve shot stuff aswell but only if it still had a pulse if it was dead she would drop it bout a foot infront of you!!
