Guest smashygadge Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Sounds like shes off to a flyer. I have a bitch of the same breeding but she only made 21" cant complain about her she seldom misses a rabbit ijust expected her to be a littlr bigger. What height is your bitch to the shoulder. Thanks Gary she is 20" gary i was thinking maybe a 23 dog,when i bought her. but im thinking i will be lucky for another inch. so sounds very similar to yours .i suppose the bitch is always the smaller but i am happy she has some speed and impressed with a first run .if she gets to 21 i will be happy mate Quote Link to post
Guest smashygadge Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 can see me stomping aboot them field muttering under my breath tomorrow nite lol im sure she will come awrite got to realy as iv got a long time tae train her lol cos shes here for as long as shes breathing thats it stomp away well worth it in long run i did it .if your keeping the dog for the long haul gotto be worth the stress ah exactly what i thought with mine . he started out straight back to hand ,then ran him with a mates dog and thats when i got the problems . but well worth some stress and muttering lol as then you will walk home on night when she clicks the happier man Quote Link to post
Guest smashygadge Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 you know im sure thats what causd mine to stop i got my terrier an took them both ferreting lurcher caugt a bolter an terrier went after her nipped that in the bud but think thats the reason why she stopped retreiving yes thats the one they do it out of a leadership i think top dog pack leader. mine now if i run 2 up he will pinch the rabbit from the bitch .but then come back so he has got the idea im leading now . ive seen a lot of young dogs go like that. my mates did same he was trying to train the 2 .they were doing same now he runs them seprate and did as ive done and they have come good too. hard to train 2 at once i think ,they need a good foundation first Quote Link to post
