    Don't worry about the timid bit, I had a gwp that was to till it was time to take down deer, then she was a machine.

    That's good to know wirehunt. A mate of mine who is a farmer was a bit concerned it would be hard going training out bad habits if it had any from the last owner. That's just going off his experience with his heading dogs. What do you reckon?

    Phillip you are putting a lot of energy into not getting a dog. I reckon if you want a dog without faults then get a day old pup or a dead one.
    Pointer and Chris like this.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Yeah that'll be the go I think when the old dog dies. Mum was warming to the idea of that vizsla but there is no way she'd want a pup doing it's business everywhere.

    They don't if you train them. The five week old pups here are already getting well toilet trained.

    How old does a puppy have to be before you can leave it home alone?

    Well the puppy would be able to run around under and through the legs of your monster.
    Of course the catch is when you both go away.

    and I was a marmite boy . . .

    I knew there was something strange but couldn't work it out. Now i know. On another matter Phillip went out with Twoshotkill's Visla yesterday. The young fellah is hooked on having a hunting dog now.

    Yeah cheers for showing me the what it's like, twoshot. I can see it can be hard work but how sweet would it have been if were able to stalk down onto all those deer he winded in the wind blowing up and over the ridge!! Awesome!
