Guest fight the ban Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 i understand whats bin said i think ive been stupid to let him do so much. before he ever pulled one i used to keep him on a lead and let him watch the older dogs when it came to bigger game. then one morning we where out jogging when one put up and out of curiosity i never stopped him, when i should of at the time. after 300yds he ploughed into it took him about six attempts to get it down, it was so unexpected. after that i never stopped him but i reakon im paying the price for it now.

Guest dog on Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 At the begining of earlie september 2007 i started to bring my 11 month old dog on. from day one hes made very fast progress and was eagar to please. ive took everything step by step making the progress from pup to dog as easy for him as i could as his confidance grew so did the size of his quarry, untill he had taken everything apart from billie wich i have no intrest in. he quickly turned out to be a reliable dog. UNTILL!! towards the end of the season i noticed a change in him i notice a lot of chances go by that should of been in the bag. then one day a deer put up he ran it a full big feild at striking distance before it hit a fence with my dog literally stood on top of it, even then my once reliable dog still did not hit it. hes now a 18month saluki/greyhound staghound/greyhound put back to a pure saluki and stands at 29". its got my head in knots, any one know wat i should do? the answer could be with the way you have been geting the dog of its prey could you tell me how and be honest Quote Link to post
