My GWP's are coming along nicely, but 1 thing I am having trouble with is getting them to stop on command when they are free running.
They are very good on a loose lead, but when free running and they see another dog, duck, hare, people on bikes etc they just don't listen.
They're both bitches and about 7mths old now.
Should I try a long lead? I've never had to use 1 before so have no idea what to do.
How long should the lead be, 30ft?
Do I just let them run with it loosely and then only pull back if they don't stop on command?
No No and No and you didn't read it. Sorry but you're on a slippery slope... I wouldn't have given them that exposure to chasing... but anyway. fixable, but get onto it, if you teach them to chase, they will and it can be hell's own job to get the to stop.
