mikecat1 0 Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 hello all, about 3 weeks back off this site i was buying a dog off a bloke from birmingham. the bitch was 110% pure lamper !!!! (money back if not) until you try and phone back. ive been lucky to have had 3-4 good dogs that were all spot on with no problems, untill now !! took the bitch out after about 3 nights found a rabbit on the lamp slipped the bitch and she just ran othe other way !!!!!!!!!!! oh then had a dump !! i thought well a change of food etc try her another time 3 weeks later after taking her out walking twice a day and once a day on the side of the car i tried her again. she didnt get the rabbit but flew down the lamp after it like a train ! and run and run and run, it took her 15mins to get back and then i had to go after her. ok im stuck with the bitch so is there anything i should be doing to get her to come back ???? she dont respond to name even though i take her out alone ?? cheers mike Quote Link to post

Guest smashygadge Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 yes sounds like watching another dog may turn it around .or is it hunting up have you tried her daytime keep it at it Quote Link to post
dexie 2 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Why not try going back to the start like u would a pup?? find a few squatters and keep it on slip and try and walk upas close as u can so it can see it. As for not coming back and hunting up had same trouble with pup and i got it in a big field that it cant get out of let it off then when you recall it if it dont start coming run other way ...worked for me ..same at night turn lamp off and give it a call if dont come back try shining on yourself then turn it off and start walking away ...once they think they gonna get left behind they soon start coming back Hope this helps....DEX :crazy: Quote Link to post
