Getting There


Recommended Posts

was writing up here a few weeks ago about my wee whippet dog that wouldn't chase well finally he is giving it ago.

 

after he seen the old dog get a fox out walking he's starting to shape up chased a few rabbits out of cover there last week and chased after them but no catch but at least he's trying took him out for a quick lamp at the weekend slipped him at 2 rabbits but he lost them but not for lack of trying he gave both of them a good run he's just not sure what to do a bit more time with him and he might come good I hope.

 

atb for the season. sammy

Great news. D'you get myxi in Northern Ireland? If so, see if you can take him to an area where there are myxied rabbits about - an easy catch is what he needs now, to really boost his confidence. If no myxi, just try keeping him away for now from areas where they'll be really hard to catch. He needs to learn asap that he can do it; repeated failure will turn some dogs off and they'll give up trying.
