atb with it mate hope you get on ok and respect to you for giving it a go and giving the pup a 2nd chance because alot of people would of f**ked it off.
mate as long as you can get his recall spot on which i think you would be able to as all he need to no is that the vibration means come back instead of the work of command like come etc.you can also teach things like sit stay with hand signals.and the retrive will be easy because no word of command should be needed.
mate think you can get an e-collar that with vibrate on it think this would be your best bet.dont see why you could not train it to come back to a vibration.

are you sure it wasnt an adder,and how the f**k could it be as fast with three legs,bet it was funny to watch it turning.
dont no just no it was a snake mate.yes it was funny and he was quick but also had problems turning.
Does he still run rabbits etc mate.my mate had a bitch that got bit of a grass snake and got her leg off.she was still a good dog on the rabbits and still just as fast.
