Thread: Rabbit aversion training ...

as ol Forest Gump says "it happens".....
agree 100% on the merits of the "leave it" command
we were out the other weekend after wallabies and fallow
my bitch was behaving herself nicely and even had 3 (from memory)rabbits jump out from literally under her feeta "leave it" was all that was needed and she carried on she did point a couple really solidly again ignoring when told to leave.
she not perfect by any means and got a bit toey when fallow was bouncing around hillside,but she stayed with me and didn't hoon off. same when we watching wallys on opposite hill face. all in all a bloody good day out on hill and great to reinforce training where I could see her.
and yes when I'd shot wallys I got her to lead me to carcase again more training.

Not often around here, hence the funny side of it.

if you remember the movie....Forest had just stepped in a dog turd... the TShirt guy took what was said and made it into "shit happens"
and yes Ackley taking the piss out of yourself is a good Kiwi trait.
