Flushed 2 rabbits this morning
« on: January 31, 2014, 11:55:17 PM »
We went down to the warren today for Teals walk and a bit of training it was 10 am blowing a gale and pishing down but still lots of dogs running around off lead so I didn't expect much and Teal didn't enter any cover until we were back by the car and she dived under a low clump of bramble and out popped 2 rabbits Teal didn't see them so I didn't have the chance to test the stop whistle. I was pleased with the flush though, I am still getting used to her cocker way of not going into cover unless she thinks there is something in there I think we need to work on this, all my springers would go into every bit of cover they came across.

Sounds like she keeps you on your toes, Jeff - a feisty and independently minded little lady it seems  :blink:

Pip's not mad keen to dive into all and every cover, but if there's stuff in there - no problem. Trainer calls him a 'pessimistic' hunter. Not necessarily bad as he's less inclined to be racing about rushing over anything. He loves bracken, though and, had a speedy hunting session today. Introduced him to bolting dummy today too - and now under no illusions/ delusions that he'd be steady to game!  Something to work on!

thats the difference between cockers and springers.  springers make work for themselves. cockers only go when there is  reason to

Sounds like she's a clever cookie. No point making work for herself if she doesn't have to!  ;)
