    Hi Ratcher1 I think that what i,m having difficulty in getting my head around is the fact that you don,t seem to be able to stop the dog when in `full flow!` In `Hunting Video Clips`,(hare coursing) you see two dogs chasing a hare ,towards the end of the video ,they are shown running beside a main road,(cars are clearly seen driving past) , the hare runs into the fence and is `nabbed!` However if that hare had managed to get through the fence and across the road ,i,m sure those dogs would have been over that fence in a second. If any of my spaniels (no matter how well trained!) had

    Hi Skycat, Thanks for the advice,i,ll try the long line idea about the sheep. We actual got the dog at 3 months old,and she is supposedly a border/lurcher cross?

    Thanks for the replys, I,ll certainly get the dvd. With the `Run in!`, are lurchers able to be called off?,or dropped to the whistle,the same as a spaniel? "Or is it a case of when thier off....THIER OFF!" and if so,how do you get the dog back?and how do you stop it from running across roads? This `THING!` , of our is only 8 months,but when she sees a bird,a rabbit,a SHEEP.she,s off after it I feel that teaching her to drop will take a lot of the `GO`,out of her,and probably make her `sticky!`Also do lurchers retrieve to hand?`,or do you have to chase after them?

    Hi There I,m new to this site .so a wee bit about me! I,m Heather,and my partner`s name is Carey.I originally come from Gourock,but now stay with Carey in `Sunny Sandbank`,near Dunnon. Until i moved over to `Sunny Sandbank`,i,d always wanted to do the `Hunting,Shooting,Fishing` thing,but this was not that easy,`not coming from that kind of back ground!`However Carey used to be very heavily involved in `Field Sports`,and now that the girls are a bit older,he would like to rekindle an old passion,..."And i can,t wait!" I now take our boat out myself,and i,m not too bad at the Macker
