  7. Help With Cut Ear

    in Lurchers & Running Dogs

    Posted

    I'm new to the lurcher game and mine cut his ear on a barbed wire fence a few months ago. I let it heal naturally after i cleaned it for the first few weeks with antiseptic spray. Anyways i'm wondering if its healed properly. It doesn't seem to be hurting him but it looks bad after its scabbed up. And he's got a small lump just above the cut. Is this normal, or have you got any advice on how i can make it heal properly.

    it should have healed ages ago "a few months ago" if its not healing it could well be infected and need to go to the vets, if you mean its healed and theres a lump this again could be an infection or just scar tissue hard to say with seeing it :hmm:

    It has healed like it has scabbed over but it sometimes knocks the scab off now and agen and yeh i think the lump is just scar tissue.

  12. Advice On Recall And Basic Training

    in Lurchers & Running Dogs

    I think i've sort of worded my first post wrong. He's a good dog caught many of rabbits already, he's just a bit ignorant sometimes. Basic stuff like Sit, stay ect.. i dont care about but his recall isnt as bad as what i think i've said it is. He comes back once i've slipped him and the rabbit may have got lucky it's just when he does catch he tends to run away from me like as if he wants me to chase him or something.

    i think you've answered your own question their mate...you say its coming on, so yes he'll get it soon enough(if your doing it right).

     

    As for recall, i believe its the most important thing any dog should learn, as its the base for all further training. i wouldn't even working in the field until the recall is sorted. what happens if he decides to just feck off.

     

    he should also be broken to livestock prior to any hunting mate.

    Well he comes back when i've shouted him its just when he catches something he decides to do on haha and starts mauling it.

    Okay so my lurcher is 14 month old now, mentally he's still a puppy but physically looks like an adult. Anyway his last owner didn't really teach him recall or to do basic dog training like sit, stay ect.. Anyway I've sort of being teaching him, will his recall come more natural as he catches more or will i need to train it? If so how? Also is he too old to be taught to sit and stay because I've been teaching him for the past 2 days and he's been getting the hang of it. Any advice is appreciated. Cheers

    You'll make a 14 amp battery pack for around £30

    and tens of thousands of pounds to repair the damage when it sets on fire or blows up :laugh: :laugh:

     

    Plus a little trip to the burns unit, then off to the beauty therapist to get your eyebrows drawn on :laugh: :laugh:

    mine was only £50 new :laugh: :laugh: fook creating a bomb to save £20 :laugh:

     

    Exactly man just buy a motorbike battery or something or even a 2nd hand lithium one off of the forums on here and it will be so much easier for you.

    I've seen and used all Lance. Striker and Blitz and then the Deben tracer variable 170 and it was my favourite out them all costs abit more than the striker but the dimmer is really use full on it. As for lance its too small and pointless imo. Striker is good, same as the tracer just I prefer tracer as its variable and for me the blitz is too big its like holding a satellite dish. any 14ah battery will do the job but the lighter the better if you don't want a bad back the next day from carrying it around all night.
