Good catch rate, strike, speed, stamina, turning ability, jump, retrieve, running the beam, not hunting up, squatters, not pulling up, not yapping, good feet and skin, soft mouthed!!!!!

 

That'd be enough for me!!!!!!!!

Would prefere mine not to jump a fence when out lamping and chasing a rabbit, lots of cliff edges and nasty land owners on the other side of the fence on some parts I go. Want the dog to jump a fence or gate when asked tho.

 

Depends on the land you go I suppose on this one.

Everyone seems to have their own veiws on a good lamp dog.

Whats one mans meat, is anothers poison.

Most of what Long Dog Runner has said does me, but, personally, i donrt mind a hard mouth or a dog thats not a 100% retriever, as long as it gets most of the bunnys.

 

Frank.

 

I dont mind a hard mouth as long as they aint munching on it to kill it, the dog i lost this year was hard mouthed, but he did very little damage to the meat, but a retrieve for me is a must, couldn't think of anything worse than having to walk across a great big field for a rabbit!!!!!

Hi look back a few pages and find the thread on training a lampiong pup, if you train your dog to do all this and it catches rabbits you are half way there.
