Well gotta say you guys in the UK have to have one of the biggest obsessions ( and I truly mean that in the best way possible so please don't get bent outta shape) when it comes to dogs. Noticed when someone posts anything and there's a dog y'all key in on that dog. Asking about the breed, blood line ect. Dont think I've seen it as engrained in hunting culture with anywhere elese like y'all. Well there some stuff over here that gets close honunds men over here can be pretty.. perticular...But still not quite to extent of you guys. What with that ? Seriously from a historical and cultural perspective? I remember seeing some stuff in the history channel about most kings back in the gap had huge kennels full of different breeds for different purposes. Need to find that documentary again , was really good...... Anyhow anyone able to shed some light on this for me? We just love our hunting dogs Brother....simple as that really...

Do they follow the first one that catches their eye to the end or would they change to an easier target as the chase develops?

Depends if things stay in a group or a couple split off and they can single something out…..but initially, it confuses the hell out of them.

Its the herd doing it’s job Thanks. It is the hunting side of canine-ology that fascinates me. Normally the hunt would start with a stalk then a well worked ambush with a possible encirclement prior to the chase and ambush. But in the situation you describe the dogs have to learn new tactics. I wondered whether they stayed true to their quarry or changed to individuals that had splintered off or were lagging behind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That’s just my experience of course, I’d suspect dogs who are worked much more regularly learn a bit more and develop accordingly mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I am sure that they do. We used to set up different scenarios to see what the dogs did. You can only learn these rhings by watching them. Then trying to work out the whys and wherefores.
