  3. on the dropping part try kneeling down so your on her level or walk backwards calling her in both time offering lots of praise and work on her retrieve use a dead rabbit so shes use to the feel of fur and the weight it will come
  4. its easy to think a dog should catch its easy stood on the bylines but to a inexperienced dog its all new and sometimes hard be patience and it only come with getting out and runs maybe work on her retrieve has she maybe not use to the feel of fur in her mouth just keep getting her out and it will come

  7. everyones different has you know jd some paired up preban at first some run solo i had a educated bitch cry everytime the lamp went on and she was locked in the van yet never a peep if she was stood watching but like you say a dog run solo is getting all the attention and runs and doesnt get the same frustration has watching another run but some dont seem to bounce about but just watch and has a youngster learn to watch were the lamps going

  9. Don't take this as a pop or attack. Genuine questions... Pretend it's from someone else if you prefer. Lol... What are they learning? A young dog will already be keen to run (or should be?) It won't learn to strike by watching will it? If a dog hasn't got good recall or retrieve then it's not gonna learn that by watching? Or is it? I've only ever seen them yapping and pulling at the lead in frustration wondering why the other dog is having fun and they aren't. Which is why I've started my pup off one-to-one as much as possible and never took her out as a pup to watch. She hadn'
  10. thanks for all the replys and kev thanks for that i will have a look
  11. The emptyhad remark is a bit disparaging Crags...to the clubs who cannot match City numbers...and there are plenty. Who exactly would this be.... I've been at Celtic park to watch st mirren and there's been 60 000 there. The sad fact is ort that your blue moon is already on the wane You've never been a big club You never will be Not not the new Chelsea, your the new Blackburn whats a big club stiff are you going of a league that was won in a two horse race thats now become one or one won in one of the best leagues containing the worlds best and city and blackburn are only name

  13. thanks for the replys lads your right about the thousands bit ferret i have saw one set up second hand 3 grand not saying it was not worth it but not what i will be paying more around the 6 /8 hundred mark will that be enough to get a half decent setup or am i better spending a bit more after all im only just getting in to this side of it so i dont want to over spend at first thanks in advance for any replys
  14. no got all season yet to decide what to do but one things for sure I wish I hadn't asked as yet again a slanging match has started again on a straight forward question asked why don't they just keep itto themselves or pm each other im no fool and know a good lurcher and my bitch deserves to have a litter to the right dog and if I get it right im laughing good luck tom atleast you have given yourself plenty of time not like some threads that have been on here stud needed asap if the lining does go head best of luck with it and i hope you get what your looking for

  16. watch ian clayton on youtube ferreting on the dales sounds very much like yours its uncanny how some mutts just seem to know were to be at the right time and its good to watch a educated dog like that
  17. I do a little bushing,seriously pups bred this way are not what a bushing afficienado is looking for,even after the attempt to prove me wrong more than a dozen times over,ive bushed a tad longer and harder than that.The art of the cull is a thankless task,horrendous,heartless and so fecking saddening,yet is the task at hand that some of us take as requisite at times,even though it may sicken us to the depths of our souls,the test of a true dogman/woman at times,thankless. sometimes its crueler to be kind has morton says no one likes doing it but sometimes it has to be done for the benefit
  18. even you must admit red atmosphere has suffered at nearly every ground that has allseating and yes i think safe standing would bring that atmosphere back and 15 pound a ticket yes after all its a workingmans game at working mans prices not like todays silly prices even for kids its a joke
  19. went lamping one night near thorn cross not far from that prison when a lad walked out from behind a hedge and with his arms in the air fecking spooked me then he told us hes done a runner ended up dropping him in manchester
