Dogs

Only other issue is i have never been able to get him to walk on lead properly...always a battle for first 20 mins

)

do you put collar and lead on before you go out? make sure when you leave house you leave 1st, don't let dog through door first. also, if he's too eager to get out make him stand/sit/lie by the door with it closed then opened until he's calm then go out the house...if you're already doing this, what about his diet? also, a good behaviour correctioner whilke on lead if pulling is a bottle of water that you can squeeze in face when they disobey/pull/don't do what you want.

yea, put collar and lead on first and always amke sure i go out first and come in first. his diet is nutro, will give the water bottle a try

iam not into shooting are anything like it
but i have a very good dog he was a hand full lovely dog but a bit nuts
nerver stoped running about and wanting to play
i showed him a rabbit and told him to kill it he loves going hunting now carmed him down with in days of his first kill
my moto is this
if my dog can catch a rabbit he can kill it with no helkp from me
now 10 years on he is the best dog i have ever had still a bit nutts had me in handcuffs a few times for biteing
but now he just want to behave so he know its hunting time every morning has long has he is good and i dont use a lead

If he pulls let him have more lead and do an about turn (continental check)
walk him back until he pulls again then repeat, this way pulling does not become a game and he then learns you are boss. my pup is a year old lab. she walks 18 inchs in front of me on the left leading but never pulling she has been doing this for 7 to 8 months.

by the time she is 21/22 months she will be out with her new owner so age does not come in to it.

good luck

Try changing the food you feed him some dogs respond bad to the addetives in food. I had the same problem and the difference was unbelivable try getting fresh hearts from the butcher and feeding them raw!! also that typ of dog is going to need ALLOT of excersise!!

[evil_jesus]

he gets plenty of exercise....going try and find someone mear me into shooting and see if they can help me with more training
