Thread: Dog ready to go bush

Day of two halves, no animals seen or taken ziggy worked really well for the first half, good range, good eye contact, bit of ground sent to a bedding area.

Then we heard a noise over the Ridge, I racked a round up the spout and crept forward, looked back for Ziggy, nowhere to be seen.. slinking 100m back and wouldn't push up no matter what I did.. Put a heap of negative pressure on her and she just shut down.

Time for a sit down think, finally got her in next to me to sit, heaps of praise racked the bolt, dry fire couple of times, more praise. Then we headed for home Ziggy out in front.

We stopped alot ziggy sitting next to me and dry fired a few, slowly slowly but she's very wary of the whole thing... I don't say anything bit of praise now and then. The negative pressure that BGID suggests doesn't seem to be the solution with her.

Shot the .22 last week with her at 50m away, timid but not shut down like today... been through the BGID Blueprint gun training 2 times with her now, always a bit of a flinch with the 7mm-08 on the last stagep.

I thinking she's destined to become the house dog.. ahh well still a great mate to have in the bush.
