Collie x are well known for it mate. Not sure theres much you can do about it.

[watchman 256]

dont know if its common with them only ever had one maybe something to do with herding instinct not sure

[jackson2kaii8 5]

my bitch does it, she knows they're there, she can see them, runs up and stands over them even.........wont pick them up unless they make a run for it, does my tits in but just got to live with it,

had a bitch used to do that on her first season i think its the chase they want but when they get to know there job they will pick up the sitters

[blackpack 70]

if she is catching and retrieving mate i wouldn't tease her. Some dogs go for sitters some dont not much any one can do.

had a collie cross that would do the same thing on the lamp, would creep up and i mean creep, till its nose was touching its arse and stay there till the rabbit gave a twitch then it would pick it up, if the rabbit never moved, i would have to walk over and put my foot to it just to get a chase. fecking annoying but worth her weight in gold otherwise

Had a few pups like that but once they have been worked hard they soon learn to lift them out of the bed , try a fox tail on the end of a bambo reward the dog when it strikes, while it is not moving coax the dog to lift it .

Surley that good if she got no intrest in dead rabbits. once she has brought them to you she wil leave them alone. There is nothing worse than a dog nipping at dead rabbits. if a rabbit is sat by right by the hedge in a place we go my bitch wont chase because she has learnt she will never catch it. other places she runs her ass off

a lot of ejits would class that as a cock lol to me it just means that the dog has a bit of sence.
