the hitman Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Can anyone suggest the best type for dog training . If anyone has one they no longer need and willing to sell , even better. Cheers Hitman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jntree Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 hi i wouldn't use one myself as i've found many dogs are put off by the crack and it could put the dog off the gun, the best way i find is to use blank shotgun shells or better still live rounds starting with the dog far away from the gun and slowly getting closer costantly praiseing the dog.

My cocker has no problems with gunfire , but he runs in when i shoot a bird . I thought a starter pistol would help over come this . He needs to know to sit down when i fire a shot.
