new to the flock Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 If you really want to cure it, put him on a lead and walk him through a field that has sheep, or rabbit, or cow or horse droppings laying around. When he drops his head give a pop on the leash and give a command...." No Sniff" ......or what ever you want to use. Once he no longer trys to eat it on a short lead, switch to a long line, an then off lead with a tab, and then off lead. If at any time he decides to test the command off lead put him back on and train some more. Remember if you can not control him beside you on lead then you can not control him off.
