Got a pup about 11 months old and notice a slight grey cloud in the top corner it doesn't cover the whole eye nore dose it seem to effect him he still hunts and chases ect just wondering wethwr it's something that will cause problems in the future where he so young or if it's something not to worry about if it's not bothering him

No offence mate but that’s you fault not the dogs .
No very true it is lack of training and manners but he can do the job and that's what matters to me but his recall ect is good but if its moving his onit

They don’t mate ,it’s a front you learn to spot .Same as terriers .
You can only work a brace proper or your kidding yourself they are working .
These big leashes you see at shows say a lot about the owner ,feck all about the dogs .No you can't work a full pack of lurchers you could terriers bushing and a couple lurcher day time if that's your game but not lamping

Decent trained dogs can be run singly off slip. Used to do that very thing when I was younger and there were rabbits about .Mother and daughter .
Does no one ever work dogs off slip anymore to heel .Train one you can train another .Jealous retrieves we’re a thing but soon got over that if you keep on top the spare dog .
Times I’ve been out with people who’s dogs are doing somersaults when it ain’t their turn .Very amateur .My dogs tried chewing the glass on a moter window to try and get out when it's slightly down hate to no what he would do off lead no chance

I feel like I had more time when I was a teenager I still find the tome for the 1 dog but how people juggle work home life ect and 3-6/7 dogs is beyond me

Yer I understand that got a spare but you still gota keep that spare fit and find the work for it I no diffent parts of the country but last year where i am it was very hard to find your runs back end of the year I think this season should be better seen a little more about

Seen alot of people with 4/5/6 dogs how do you ever get the time to run and work them all I've got 1 and that's good enough for me to keep fit and lamp 3 4 times a week in the winter I've had 2 before but just couldn't find the runs or the time for both so once they got older and I got fresh stock I just stuck with keeping 1 dog now

Personally light force striker I've got a lithium battery but if your only doing a few hours here and their a sit on mower battery or something will be good enough and cheaper like said previously a led lamp is ok but the white light is poor for spotting over a distance definitely the yellow light is best

6 minutes ago, Who let the dogs out! said:
Some guy was in court and got f****d for doing it. Lost license propper f****d him over.
Really a few year back I was jogging a dog out and the local copper was driving down the land he just put his hand up as we past each other and carried on I always use the same single track back lane never a buisy road lucky to come across a car on the whole jog out

1st time owner
in Gundogs & Retrievers
Posted
Just bought a cocker bitch she’s 8months old come from a pet house hold that could no longer keeper her due to moving.
anyway I’ve had lamping lurchers all my life so 1st time with a dog that’s not a sight hound Im not looking for a out and out gun dog as I gave my guns up a few years ago but enjoy dog work she’s got the basics a pretty good recall and she sits but I want to get her retrieving and hunting I do have a little whippet terrier that hunts cover shell I just let her run with him like you would lurches to learn from the other or is 1 to 1 dummy training better.
many thanks
