lurchers 2,820 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 It's probably done day work and not lamping mate so it's used to hunting up,then it depends on its age the dog way we'll be stuck in its ways and never change 1 Quote Link to post

paulsmithy83 567 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 All have hit it on head its all about the recall. No excuse for it. Can have the maddest keenest hunter going with the best nose ever seen in an animal. Can make all the excuses going but it boils down to one fact you have failed in your recall training. Go right back to basics and start again Quote Link to post

I had a 1stx beddiexgrey out of Rambo 30yrs ago off a lad who had only ferreted with it for 3yrs.never even seen a lamp till I got him and it was the worst thing any body has seen on the lamp if it missed anything for hunting up and would be gone for 5mins easy.i gave it millions of opertunities over 5mths and you couldn't change it.it wasn't the dogs fault it's all it had done and way way it was trained.i sent it back to the lad before something ended up serious ?

It's just being ignorant and doing what it's like. Get recall spot on before taking dogs out. Just to add day work it was like a trained spaniel on the sit,stay wait just a twat on the lamp if it missed.yes revolt is a must on any dog but different kettle of fish if it's mad keen and never lamped.have a go of one and then come back to see what your thoughts are atb Quote Link to post
