first catch


Recommended Posts

well ive bred a pup (a very small bullx) the brothers and sisters were all starting very early and catching with ease my little pup has no intrest what so ever i did everything right,just couldnt understand it as she would trot after the rabbits not really intrested and never break into a full run , i broke her to ferrets from an early age and wondered perhaps this is the problem ,a friend of mine looked after her for a week when she came back she was limping found a large ulcerated wound under her front armpit vet said it was under the skin for a while.(which i had no idea was there)

got her on anti biotics and she was like a different dog ,coursed a rabbit turning it 5-6 times in a large field ,grabbing it 3 x flipping head over heels carried on going rabbit started screaming whilst running she struck it held it and gave it back .....FINALLY .....were getting somewhere hopfully she will keep this up :victory:

Contarary to popular beleif and macho talk bull xs can be slow to mature and easy to ruin , perseverence and a little sympathetic handling goes along way with any lurcher .

shes 14 months now mate ,tried her once a month from 10 months to 12 and a few more times in the last 2 months so havnt really over done it ,shes jumped her 1st fence now and a 4 bar gate also and her recall is perfect too,so little by little she getting there ,just showed zero interest at first,
