nightcrawler 1 Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 (edited) I've just got some permission and am getting an air rifle to take rabbits And i'd like 'Misty' to retreive them for me Shes caught and bought back live rabbits before so im hoping she'll be ok with it. Would i be best to get a cured rabbit skin and attach it to the dummy first ?? Cheers Leon Hello friend am in the process of getting a Old English Labrador next month and would like to train it from my air gun to retrieve how have you found training your dog an how old is misty?

Little Butch 16 Posted January 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Hi mate, shes nearly 3 and picks things up really easily I got myself a dummy from a game fair and she will find and retrieve it from anywhere It cost me £3 and is really good. Now shes good with the dummy i want to get her onto real game, i plan on wrapping the dummy with a rabbit skin to get her retrievng rabbits and also attaching wings etc to it to break her in gently. At the moment she will sniff out dead pheasants but wont retrieve them Hope this helps Any questions ask away Leon Quote Link to post
