Some great pics on your flickr album there Claire - who's the dodgy looking lanky chap? Very Happy

Looks like whistle is getting some brilliant experience under her belt!

I had a 'Ben' moment with Rumour a few weeks ago when she went off dear chasing deer, when she got back she got the bollocking of her life as I was as mad as hell Twisted Evil  Twisted Evil , she is now greaty improved she will still track off on scent but If I yell she returns and looks 'sheepish' so she knows what she is doing is wrong its just getting her past the stage of not doing it atall Shocked  I suppose the temptation is just too much Sad

Last winter I had big problems with Buck chasing deer. I got lucky when a deer was so frightened that it ran towards me. I rugby tackled Buck and damn near jumped up and down on his head !  This was the start of me gaining some control with deer around. He hasn't seen any for a while now - that worries me 'cos it's very likely I'll have to start all over again training him not to chase them. Where steadiness - to anything  Wink - is concerned it is usually a case of practice makes perfect.
