  1. Mine also bounces from side to side when he gets close trying to preempt which way its going to go. Though the other night one didn't budge and he picked it straight after a bit of dancing lol. Strange after this amount of time though its changed tact. Just shows they never stop learning

  5. How people afford some of these rent prices I don't know they are astronomical. Any thing over 90 quid a week just seems wrong lol Some folks rent for over a grand a month how the hell is that possible Bring back the old days. granddad parked up in a lay bye we got up the next morning he said this looks lovely spot.

  6. Out of curiosity Dawn and I have never seen or used one my self as I live in wales anyway. But if they have a range of settings and you use the lowest which I gather is just a tingle and as said allows you to give the dog a tap on the shoulder at an appropriate time is that not a good thing ? especially with problem dogs and sheep ? better than having to catch the dog and give it a clout which you can't time as well and not ideal anyway. Yes maybe the dog shouldn't be in that position in the first place. But some are inclined that way it seems

When he was two one morning early start in work I spotted a hare couple of fields away I lobbed him over the wall and off he went. Lost it then started coming back and I suddenly realised he had to come back straight through a flock and he never batted an eye
  8. I found when mine was hunting and rabbits about he was focused on them sheep didnt even register. He made his error when were just walking and a few moments before he had a made moment belting around. I thought at the time this isnt the best moment to test him and I should have listened

I made it clear wasn't happy and since he won't even lo
  11. I would be optimistic if you were to pack the dog away for best part of a year as far as work goes. Might never make a 100% but could still do a bit and be good for you both
