Are there alternatives, that a actually can work for a grey hound mix, so I sight hound, which also means the scent is not really the issue, but the fast moving deer and rabbits?<br />Also: is being exposed to wildlife and having reactions, that lead to complete freak-outs, that I can only manage when they occur because training is literally impossible in a situation like that, really going to do any good? I have the feeling with every deer we see, that drive gets worse and we go back a step.

To do it correctly requires a good mentor, a lot of time taken by the owner, fairness, consistent obedience work, a lot of repetition to attain the perfect timing, and an open mind. Maybe the open mind thing should be mentioned first. Why did I go this route? Because it was absolutely NOT an option to have my girl be mangled under someone's car tires. And guess what? She comes when she's called, her heart &/or spirit have not been broken, and this, along with the obedience training, has allowed her to break out of her timidity. Happy, confident, obedient? Yes, yes, and YES! <br /><br />SeahorseSeahorsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00133454380103294333noreply@blogger.com
