lurchers4life 103 Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 My jack Russell bitch Put a topic on a few months back Well the story was that shed chase rabbits all day but would stop at cover Few months later she's the best terrier I've had ive put a hell of alot of time into her from then to now and she has been a very testing dog from hunting up feilds away and becoming deaf to her recall is brilliant had a few days out this season so far with her and she's marking 100% so I'm very pleased scince I've never had a dog that's marked it's made life a lot easier so here's a rabbit that we ferreted today afte she bushed then corsed for 200 yards plus then eventually put it to ground and marked then ferreted 2 Quote Link to post

day and night walker 233 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 I remember reading your post and replying that my terrier was having similar problems/ bad recall/ interested one day and not the next.But i must say now that she is coming along fine. When she is on a hot scent there is no stopping her. I have also noticed that she whines and yips when she is close to her quarry something that she never used to do and this last month she has caught a few rabbits in the cover/ probably flukes though haha. Anyway glad to hear yours is doing you proud L4L hope she continues to do so atb daywalker. Quote Link to post
lurchers4life 103 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Yeah mate I remember Mines a different dog mate she cries when close to the bunnys she's caught a few and started marking in the summer but I've never ferreted until these last few weeks with her and I've gained trust with her marking straight away every time she marks there's rabbits home which I'm realy chuffed after never owning a marking dog and tbh all my mates dogs have either been false marking or just never mark so ferreting wise I've never done real well but I've got a few permissions holding a good head of rabbits so I should do well this season atb with your terrier DNw L4l Quote Link to post

lurchers4life 103 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Mate if there up something's arse it's hard to stop them the recall should come mate just take a bag of treats I did mate and keep on top of them and reward when they come back but don't give them treats every time know what I mean?
