Hec is 22 weeks now and we have been quietly sitting watching the sheep with much concentration on me and very little on the sheep. As he has a lot of collie /kelpie in him I want to make him as sound as possible with sheep before he gets to the one finger age. I really don't want him disappearing after a flock of wooley backs. Any suggestions on how to keep his interest when we build up to walking through them and actually getting them to move? Moving away when they are at a distance is fine but if they ran straight in front I think it might be to much

Lovely looking pup she is. Can't wait for some of your pics when she gets going. Sleep is for wimps btw thought you knew that.

Good bit of permission their mate. Loads to keep you and your youngsters busy. Good luck to her and keep the pics coming.

Can't believe it has been allowed to drag on so long. Farmers don't get any choice as to if they can have 1/2 their livelyhood destroyed.

Having only had older rescue lurchers, I now have a pup which I got at 9 weeks. He is now 11 weeks; eventually when he is old enough I want to work him. His house training is coming on sits for meals and when encouraged fetches and brings toys back to hand and releases them. Starting to recognise his name. (not easy in a household of five dogs). Come on then tips and advice please I've only trained labs from pups before.

Hi. I'm madmac owner of 4 lurchers 3 rescues and now a 10.5 week pup. Rescues are; whippet cross Saluki cross DH cross who all came with degrees of 'luggage' to unpack.

He is collie/grey x kelpie/grey and I would welcome lots of feedback and support on his training. Trained gundogs from scratch but never a lurcher should be fun. They are very different as pups thats for sure. Will post pics later. Off to tak
