Jamie93 57 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I know every dog is different but I've got a 6yr old staffy and he is a bastad. Indoors he's the most loving dog I've seen but outside he goes loopy if I let him off the lead and won't come back but do you reckon with a bit of hard training in a closed tennis court he will change?

littlefish 598 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 What would you consider 'hard training in a closed tennis court?' I beleive most dogs can be improved through regular, consistent training. Give it a go and see what happens it's got to be worth a try, otherwise do the responsible thing and keep it on a lead.

Jamie93 57 Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 By hard training I mean cosistent without go OTT so that he doesn't get bored of it just want him to come back on command etc. I will if need be, I would just like him to be able to come out when I go shooting etc. Happy Hunting Jamie93 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
littlefish 598 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Give it a go - keep the sessions short and interesting for the dog. Have you had it from a pup? Good luck, hope it comes right for you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie93 57 Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Yes since 6 weeks but he was a nightmare in and out of the house when younger and would yank on the lead. I have now got him to walk next to me to some exten but he's still got a way to go. Thanks for your advice Happy Hunting Jamie93 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blackstaff 488 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Keep training sessions short and fun, and always always end it on a good note. food incentives are good to, when you call him and he comes to you give him a treat, he'll soon learn, all the best Quote Link to post Share on other sites
