squab 2,875 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 without giving to much away so to speak how could i go about breaking a 19 month old dog to deer,bearing in mind he working along side couple bushers so not like i can just walk him up and correct him if he shows to much interest like you would live stock,only time he sees them is breaking from cover and a shout to leave is good for feck all.cheers Quote Link to post

Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Pretty hard considering it's the sighthounds main quarry I'd of thought. Good luck. The collar is about the best suggestion ? 1 Quote Link to post
Guest Navek Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Dress up in a deer suit hide in some bushes with a plank of wood and some deer scent then when the dog finds you crack it one while screaming like a pissed up banshee Quote Link to post

flipbull 1,139 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Good time of year to break them. Plenty of dickheads about in rudolph suits. If it goes pair shaped they wont be as loud as the real thing 1 Quote Link to post

squab 2,875 Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 It can be done. yes but how Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I'll ask. Seen a dog that knows they are quarry and knows it can take them, but won't chase them because its been told. 2 Quote Link to post
bullmastiff 615 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Maybe get in touch with a deer park and explain what your trying to do? Just don't mention about working the dog!! Get up close with a zap collar on and set it to its highest setting? 1 Quote Link to post
