No good imo what's wrong with a normal collar and abit of bailing twine? A mate of mine used one of them a few years back there okay for slipping but what if you want to pull your dog off something you have to remember fit the collar

Better still train your dog not to run until it's told, then you do not need a lead.

Try telling a bull cross or infact anything with anything about it not to run when it's got something in its sight haha

 

There are dog men and then you have those that like to think they are,

Must admit any good lurcher shouldn't just stand there watching quarry run off if it's not told to chase ... I'd be pretty worried if my lurcher stood there watching a rabbit run cross a field in front of it ..however I think a lurcher that can be called off is Worth it's wait in gold

you might be able to train a lurcher to do it but you'll have to break it's spirit i think.it don't matter if it's 1 yd from home and were how ever far away unless she's on a lead she'll go.don't bother me though apart from that pulling like feck and always pinching the sunday joint she's perfect.

to stop a lurcher chasing is like kicking a pointer on point.i know my dogs are well trained but only a lead will stop them chasing if i don't want them to.

If that was the case i would be worried about the dogs prey drive, ive heard it said ,i can call my dog of mid course usually by some gobshite in the beer tent, but ive yet to see a dog do it.

[Shaddy93 840]

Iv seen it happen to be fair to the lad, the downside to it was the dog wasn't to see another day shame really lovely dog it was

Mid course is almost impossible if the dog has any drive at all. Stopping a dog that's close by and on it's own and hasn't got going yet is another matter.

I don't think that's strictly true personally I'd say that's down to breaking to certain animals, my dogs won't kill sheep but that's down to me breaking them to sheep not down to a command if they happened to one night switch and decide they wanted lamb dinner and set off after a flock of sheep only a gun would stop them
