Gaz_1989 9,539 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 changeShouldn't make a difference if it's only done day work still should come back if it's shouted or whistled, mine will hunt up in the day and come straight back if he misses on the lamp, what's it like for coming back in the day ?exactly. 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 Did the dog have good recall in the day? My pup is mad keen and only done daytime mooching from 6 weeks old with free reign to hunt up as she pleases. But her recall is spot on and now I've just recently started lamping her she comes straight back when the lamp is off and I whistle her. Had a beddy greyhound that was a f****r for hunting up, had poor recall and I couldn't teach it recall (got it at 3 years old). But it was the same in the day. Not just on the lamp.

tank34 2,449 Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I had a beddy greyhound bitch and she hunted up for fun in day time and on the lamp most would of got shut of her but she was a very good dog to work with terriers and put a lot of game in the bag , she got killed on the road on the hunt as when she got on some thing she would not give in. I have a 13 month old pup 5/8 greyhound 3/8 beddy spent a lot of time on recall he been on the lamp ones two runs missed one and came back to me no hunting up hope pup keeps it up 1 Quote Link to post
Sirius 1,391 Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Basic stuff, which should be done with the youngster. If the dog misses, lamp off or dim it, call, whistle whatever but don't walk out to the dog. If it's still decking about, lamp off and walk away to the truck. It won't take long for the dog to realise how to get more runs is with you. If this is a older dog you will need to work much harder to iron out this problem. 1 Quote Link to post

Qbgrey 4,175 Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 As said .do not follow the dog with beam.if it misses lamp off.whistle.call etc.walk away from it.once itz back repeat.if itz mad keen knock the wind out of it first by trotting ig along motor .quad.etc.if you got a bond with it the dog should not want to be away from you for too long. 1 Quote Link to post
