    I noticed the Aussies seem to like the dog way out in front approach, and some of the open bush in the Vic highlands it would be fine. Would cost you a lot of deer here in the NI bush.

    A young dog will always stretch out as he gets older and more confident so it pays to keep a pretty tight heel when starting out. I had a bitch who when sidling along 10-15 metres below a ridgeline would leave my side, make her way quietly to the top the ridge to scent a different breeze, then come back and join me. All within eyesight of course. Nothing wrong with that in my books

    Or should I say - Keep it behind the muzzle but allow it to take some slack as long as its obedient?
