Thread: Rabbit aversion training ...

Well, that was embarrassing! Never work with kids or animals!
Client picking up a young springer after some remedial work this morning. Having concluded everything I offered to get "Grace" out so they could see a well mannered, trained, compliant gundog. I don't know if it is because of the 70 kpm winds, or that the young dogs have had my attention this week but I let her out. Put her in a "stop". She saw a swan on the water 100 meters away and was off like an untrained unruly shithead!
She came back on the recall but if the wind dies I think we might need a refresher training session later today! They keep you on your toes.
The irony was I had just finished, before going out to meet the clients, the long arse post above on how to properly steady a dog... LOL.....
