Guest vin Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 have you ever been with a women who lets you put in then makes you take it out just when you want to spurt... ..you may be familiar with the term Blue balls...something we all had when we were young uns at some point...(oh the good old days) think about it and put yourself in the dogs shoes... so to speak... you would be barking if you couldnt shoot yer load. keep it on the easy bunnies for a long time and keep your fingers crossed that next year when the dog is strong a fit enough start her on some easy slips with the young big ears... if she,s barking while on the lead [bANNED TEXT] a slip..correct that at point if poss.. even keep her on lead at all times and make her watch another dog silently enjoying the course,making her stay quiet.. Its a sad fact .but once they start yapping they usually never stop...so take any advice given on here from the many experts and use it.. no-one will want the dog for working with them problems.. good luck vin Quote Link to post
