Breedia Dog Forum
When you break any exercise down into the various parts, for me, the main parts that need to be reinforced, are the basic obedience. So, for...
I've got varied experience, my dogs, and the OH's, mine are mainly show bred, and don't have such a huge drive, but have built that in following good...
More than welcome, I'll most likely (hopefully) have number four of the girly gang by then in that case. I'm going to a show down at Matlock &...
You'd be more than welcome to pop up, just give me a shout, my work shifts vary, but I'm sure i can squeeze in a demo and explanation. Having said...
Yes I do still live up t' roooood from Rov'rum. The mistake most people make with training to retrieve, including me, is training retrieves all...
Basically, the rule of thumb with picking up, is the dog is used for any birds that you can't pick by hand, so long distances away from you, out of...
I think you'll most likely be part of the picking up team, or one of the beaters, peg dogs are with the guns, so unless you or the OH has taken up...
Just a quick note, I'm looking out for a litter in the New Year on behalf of someone else wanting a flatcoat, they're not bothered about working or...
Labrador, hopefully the very first from a litter bred by myself. Although I certainly wouldn't rule out another flatcoat in the future, I'll be...
Thanks for all the lovely replies! Rhuna is indeed a cracker, and she chose me, more than anything, when I went to look at her. That's the way...
Rhuna has a stronger desire to retrieve, than either of my Labs, but then she's more *working* bred than they are as well. Have scanned her...
The movement is incredibly different as well, I'm amazed at how different they are. Sire is Gowran Mars Black at Varingo, and the Dam is imported...
Rhuna was six months old on the 11 December :shock: [IMG] This is her in upside down mode, which is, apparently, something all flatcoats...
Doesn't matter, if you set out to do pest control, you can't let your guard slip just because you've been given permission. You need to know what's...
What would you do, if someone had recorded the incident and reported it? Ask yourself that question, every time you take your dogs out. And...
You have permission from a farmer but don't know the difference between a rabbit and a hare? I hate to sound condescending, but I'm assuming you're...
If I were you, I'd delete your post, and keep your dogs on lead. Hare coursing is banned, not that most people actually know what hare coursing...
GR's were just a few years behind Labradors in the development of the breed type, and are air scenters, rather than ground scenters, as Labs are. In...
Anyone else following? OH is down watching it, so if people want updates, I can post, unless you've got your own sources :grin:
