And any other game which will involve them getting towed around and disheartened. But then I dont keep coursing dogs. if you can dishearten a pup mate it would be hard work there bouncing full of enthusiasm more chance a disheartening one at 18month that cant use its mouth and gets shook off everytime its in cover 2 Quote Link to post

Steer clear of open fields and fast stuff and knock about the woods hedges and scrub instead until they find their legs. Quote Link to post

The drover 348 Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Everyone does something a little different with pups . There's no exact science to it . If your older and wiser , you learn by your mistakes and you make less of them . Once you've done right by a pup . Nurture it till second season. Its all down to them . Unless they are being flogged . Or owners are kidding Everyone on they are out when they ain't. Which is just as bad as flogging them . 1 Quote Link to post

I run good old English coursing breds they are a safer bet for me although I have just outcrossed to an old friends line of desert breds that can do what I need as have a few of the lads with the pures ..
