Yapping

[THLpatrick 555]

Heres just a few varied questions..now i know its been done before but just couldnt find what i was looking for

 

Has anyone owned a yapper that still did them proud?

 

can a dog that yaps still put game in a bag?

 

what would anyone advice be to minimizing yapping?

 

will some dogs be silent and then on occasion let out a yip and yap?

 

Will dogs yap of certain quarry?

 

has anyone ever cured a yapper? or minimized it as best they could?

 

can a yapper still earn its kennel space?

 

reasons for yapping? will a dog yap unfit and then not when fit..can it be out of exctiement if it hasnt worked in a while..

 

just thought id see what replies, any questions you have just ask..and anyone who can reply properly with advice would be greatly appreciated

yeah i know a few that do that..sounding where it is..i think that an attribute tbh..if it enters cover at night will it still yap? or do u not hit cover much at night?

Can't handle yipping yappers!

 

Would make u cry first time you hear your pride and joy you have paid good money for and spend hundreds of hours working with over summer starting to yap!

The dog in question is a big built powerful animal and if his quarry out performs him he sometimes let's out a yap in frustration and if it hits cover and he can't get to it will also yap. It doesnt bother me really he's a handy dog and is pretty much indestructible. Atb

but then would oyu just give in, if it was only occasional and still give its all? all different obviously

A wee yip now and again I could handle but no a yapper.

A yapping lurcher would honestly do my head in but if you can cope with it and its catching who gives a monkeys but you may not get many invites.

yes ive seen yappers catch plenty.give a young dog confidence catches early on not running it on impossble targets.run it fit. dont run it with a injury.ive seen dogs quiet on rabbits but open up on hares.running woodland heavy cover can bring out the worse in some dogs.say a prayer some dogs yap despite your best efforts and some dont.
