    I am looking at it from the other side of fence my pup was hunting up at 4 months and I had to protect him from him self. But I failed in that and his injured so enjoy the relaxing times while you can and concentrate on training I reckon. It's not such as bad thing I have come to realise

    As above if its in them you have to worry about holding them back rather than the other way round. My jr started hunting as a pup on rabbits, rats then one day when he ready dropped in on a fox and was away.

My terrier learnt to keep dead still if there was a rabbit sat in the hole entrance. He wouldn't even turn his head you could see him peeping out the corner of his eye. He learnt that by ploughing into the first couple he ever saw and sending them back down and he picked up silence was golden would never bark or yap unless I couldn't find where he was marking and shouted where are you boy he gave a muffled woof which got l

    Good Deed

    terryd posted a topic in General Talk

    Well last night the wife went to pickup the daughter after her shift in work from the town centre. When she got there the daughter was slumped on the pavement she thought great shes peed again but turns out she had a staffy sat on her lap. It had been wandering around on its own and tagged on to me daughter. As the wife pulled up it ran across the road to her and nearly got flattened by police car. They were great help and said leave it there or take it home. So in the end she took it to the town vet who kept it over night. Luckily it was chipped as it had no collar on. Returned to its owner

    One thing I learnt the hard way if your pup is a trier don't let it come across some thing it won't have a hope of catching that won't do it any good
