J.DOG 1,355 Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 My pup is 8 month I diddnt start to train him till about 6 month . He will jump things but they are not that high do you think I should try him on a fence or should I wait till he is older when I take him near a fence he just stands up against it. Lol Any advice lads Quote Link to post
Cold Ethyl 63 Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 A wise old man taught me a good trick when theyre young put a bar across the door or something in pups way with a blanket over it and they have to jump all the time just low to start off and raise once they get the hang off it Quote Link to post

rossi_j 99 Posted June 4, 2011 Report Share Posted June 4, 2011 Climb over the fence and carry on without looking back, I recon the dog will be right behind you Obviously start low and dont let the dog panic and whine. Just my thaughts. .atb. .ste. Quote Link to post

Lol Any advice lads J Dog - not being picky mate but you posted the text below at 4.18pm today and it appears that your dog is jumping - yet tonight you're asking for advice regarding getting your dog to jump? Didn't you post this - "Lol let the dog have a go over fence see what happens my pup is skimming but when it comes to the barbed wire the dog knows that there ain't much room to plant feed on it so he clears it. I was thinking the same thing as you but I just let him have a go and it went well atb mate" Edited June 4, 2011 by BORDERSCOT Quote Link to post
