Sirblessed 2,511 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Chase MK II The first pup I showed on here was returned after a heart condition was diagnosed by my vet, a defect that happens from birth on occasion I’m told, this video is of his full brother, not quite as outgoing but still quite a nice pup, a little bigger and coming along just fine. 8 Quote Link to post
OldPhil 5,929 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) Well done Brother, its great to see guys enjoying a wee bit of training time with their young mates... I have always pushed the retrieve in my working style , roustabout, workers and a tip I have found to be useful (alongside the narrow alley way trick) is to position yourself in front of the favourite place, that the pup will head for, when he has his prize .. I've even sat in a dog's bed waiting for him to leap in For me, fetching and carrying captured game, and returning it to me, is a vital part of owning a lurcher... Obviously for many other enthusiasts, it isn't, ..that is fair enough,...and as it must always be, its strictly a case of, each to his own.. but, I just prefer it that way...I've reared , nurtured and fed the mangy cur,...so its time to say,...thanks Boss.. Keep on with the gentle schooling and enjoy the journey... All the best, OldPhil. Edited July 26, 2022 by OldPhil 14 Quote Link to post
