Lennard 10 Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 With a bit of luck someone will show you the ropes but when there is nobody you have to do it like me...just try it out, play around with tennis balls and the lamp and try to find the ideal place with easy rabbits and keep on practising...read some posts with tips from here...

Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 I know the feeling mate, i too was left to vend for myself, but that can be good. I trained my lurcher on the lamp in the back garden to start off with. Made a dummy fron rabbit skin, once she was bringing back the dummy day time i started to throw the dummy down the garden during darkness and shine the lamp on it, she soon copped on what was expected off her, its hard but you will get here.
