  16. Springer - Two small issues

    Thanks guys,

     

    Marking - I used to be able to throw the dummy, see it land and just say "fetch" to the dog and he'd go for it straight away. I sometimes cast him off by hand... but generally have no specific or regular stance or position...it could be a consistency issue I s'pose .

     

    "Regarding the recall/pulling on - He's being inconsistent/trying his luck/not hearing me from the blood rushing to his head whilst on scent. I've been trying to keep him to 20 yards max but finding it difficult in rough cover."

     

    Yesterday was the same - out beating and him not coming smartly back enough to the recall/turn whistle. I improved things slightly with the stop whistle followed by the recall and then moved on with more improvement in getting after him and dragging him back to the point where I whistled and he ignored.

     

    Yet final drive he seemed fine and but towards the end he managed to peg and grab a pheasant (retrieved) despite my stop and recall.

     

    "When out training he's fine on the recall and it seems that its just on live game where the beligerent little b*gger is getting ahead of himself."

     

    Hope this helps...

    this sounds familiar, i,m glad to hear its not just me with that problem , NTTF adviced me to use a drag line and collar , and guess what its starting to work :lol: , but its like you said Jonno , when hes on scent of live game , he goes out to 50 sometimes 100 yards on the scent .
