2504 92 Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 My mate recently got a griffon vendeen x beagle which has been worked before in a pack, he's 2 years old but every time we have had him out he's around our feet to today we went for a walk and a whippet with us picked up some sent and was off after its quarry but the hound showed no interest!! Anyone know why he's like this as the lad before really rated him and we've seen him work, Quote Link to post
dymented 2,220 Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 get the dog settled in and some sort of bond normally works well Quote Link to post
2504 92 Posted August 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Thanks pal, he's had the dog about 2 weeks now he's chuffed to bits with him apart from him not working yet lol Quote Link to post
BlackBuck 655 Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Could be the fact that hes come from a pack . Saw it loads before where dogs hunted great in pack but when taken away from it , they where useless . Give him a while to settle and hopefully he comes good for you . Best of luck with him 2 Quote Link to post

turkish 285 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 My mate recently got a griffon vendeen x beagle which has been worked before in a pack, he's 2 years old but every time we have had him out he's around our feet to today we went for a walk and a whippet with us picked up some sent and was off after its quarry but the hound showed no interest!! Anyone know why he's like this as the lad before really rated him and we've seen him work, id ask yourself why he was sold out of pack at two years old. id say the dog you got was only a follower and not capable of working on his own seen it happwn loads times. jmo 5 Quote Link to post
