teal27 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hi all, i have a 12 month springer/lab cross thats been pretty good as from today when i took her pigeon shooting then on a retrieve instead of bringing it back ran off with it and when i went to take it away she picked it up and done it again, I really lost my patience with her today and just put her back on the lead and made her sit with me the rest of the day! I could do with a gun dog trainer that could help if any one knows of one in the east anglian area? she hasnt got to be perfect, just retrieve straight to me, and stop on the whistle would be good enough for me!! Ive tried so many different things but its over my head now and just need some advice to bring her up to the grade. thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGD Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Not sure about trainers in your area, but sort the recall before doing any more retrieving. She has to recall to you immediately, whatever she is doing; once she understands that she will recall with a retrieve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
