Thread: GWP - training advice

To cut a long story short here. About a year ago my wife got me a GWP puppy he’s 14 months now,during a rough patch as some company. I thought I was going to be able to get on top of unwanted behaviours but he is bloody driven and head strong. So I’m just seeing if anyone with more experience has the training advice required. Yes we run an e-collar this came about from him bolting as a pup.

1 - Range, he is getting the picture around staying in range but will constantly push his boundary’s out, where I am constantly on his case.

2 - excitement / noisy, once he gets in to a scent he starts getting too excited and working too fast and really pushing his boundaries

3 - chasing - it’s 50/50 whether he’s going to get on point or chase in fact it was very clear this afternoon once he got on to a scent that he wanted to chase it down.

If I can get these 3 thing sorted then he should come right and actually hunt with me.
