pigeonman 8 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 i was in the loca co op about a week ago and over heard a young girl talkin to a friend about a dog shed picked up a month ago, she was sayin that it doesnt stop pissin n barking no matter how much she smacks it about, so iasked her what breed it was and if shed consider giving it to me as she was having no luck with it, im no dog trainer but i no for a fact that smacking a dog about all day long aint gona solve any problems! anyway shes taken back to a little flat n shes opened up the door, the smell was unreal and this little bag of bones with no fur left on her tail was all huddled up in the corner, i felt so sorry for the poor dog i said id take her, the cheeky bird wanted 50 quid for her! i told her shes lucky i dont ring the rspca n took the dog. ive fed her up over the last week and shes lookin much better and shes no where near as nervous as she was, ive taken her out in the mornins and shes like a completely different dog when she out in the bushes, shes all alert with her tail up n very quick . ive never used dogs or never been bushing at all. can she work alone? is it too early to work her considering the state she was in a week before? i gues her age is around 5 years, is that too old to work? im not bothered if she can or cant as she is such a nice dog to have around at home n at work. al Quote Link to post
Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Fair play for taking the dog, if the dog shows an interest in work then let it do what its instincts tell it to do I say. Got any pics of her to show us? Quote Link to post
events co-ordinator 353 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Give the dog a chance to build itself up to full health concentrate on recall and obedience training check its stock broken and congrats for saving dog ps the more work you put in the more reward you will get back YIS Quote Link to post

OldNog 432 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 One of the best dogs iv seen work was a jack russell whippet. Good runner and wasnt afraid of the sharp end of things However, that didnt have someone dressing it up like an extra from brokeback mountain put your foot down man!! Dog looks a good un, all the best Quote Link to post
