steve2507 522 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Twixs introduction season over almost over now with a rocky start but came on great in last couple of month . At first he wouldn't entertain having rabbit fur in his mouth anything else he was fine with but a rabbit he would run till the rabbit gave up the ghost , it was teeth grittingly tense to say the least I tried everything but he just wanted to run them till they collapsed , thank god he turned the corner and started using his mouth ? and all turned well , he has become like me best buddy we have created a good team together he has started to read me and vice verca if I spot something in the distance he watches me and then scans the area till he spots what I'm looking for and like wise I can read him by watching his actions and have started to trust if he says there is something there then 9/10 there is . Hope all had a good season and have a good summer ? From young pup To this fine chap And my attempt to getting a snap of him lifting a rabbit Atvb ?? 16 Quote Link to post

jake824 517 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Great to be in sync with ur dog. I never used to speak to my old dog he knew where he needed to be and I never had him on a lead and would run when I told him to. Never had that connection before or since that dog. good luck with him hope u have many a year with him 1 Quote Link to post

steve2507 522 Posted March 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 Cheers lads he has been a mind challenge which gets me onto thinking is it because of slow starters and impatient owners the reason why so many dogs end up on the merry go round , you take a young lad/lass for instant he has a 16 month pup been like my twix was but sees other lads with a 12 month old dog taking bags of game his first thought would be my dogs no good and possibly give up on that dog .
