roybo 2,873 Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 Can be genuine reasons for getting rid of a young dog ,and even if they have just had enough ,it may not have been ruined and still young enough to mould Quote Link to post

Saltmoon 2,208 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 I picked my last dog up for £50 of a fella came with zero training and had seen a rabbit. He turned into a right trooper but recall was always a problem once he'd picked it up Quote Link to post
terryd 8,385 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) I don't see a problem with an older dog. Just because the owner has got fed up or has other reasons don't mean the dog won't be fine. Some real crackers floating around on fb just looking for a home If I ever offer my dog up mind for gods sake don't take him His got more issues than you can shake a stick at Edited June 16, 2017 by terryd 5 Quote Link to post
skycat 6,173 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 And speaking of issues: one of my Airedale lurchers is not what I'd call completely normal, either. I wouldn't swap her for the world, but I could quite understand that if someone else had her they'd have got rid long ago. Seriously, the sad thing is that if this pup had been tried on game, and found wanting, the lad would be getting rid of it having failed to understand that what you see at 8 months is not what you'll get at maturity, though if the pup hasn't been reared right, or already suffered some injury etc etc, there's no guarantee it would go on to become a competent worker. 2 Quote Link to post
