  |
|
Hello
Does anyone use a high vis jacket for there Lab as i am going away this saturday with Ben i wanted toget him a jacket because of him being black and darker nights and mornings .
When i went away in may to cornwall we had a caravan with large grass area which i thought was inclosed but 6 am one morning he vanished i searched high and low in my flip flops lol best i could and decided get my trainers on for big search as i was gettibg them on and explaining to my dad i could see him through caravan window plodding back not a care in the world but i can tell you panic set in when he went.
Reason he was off lead he will not go do his business
and recall is hit and miss with him likes to ignore me most the time tried to teach recall but when hes out he will not bother with treats he would sooner fly about .
Also is there any sort of electronic tracker you can buy normally he never goes out of my sight if i hide he straight back but all those new smells gets the better of him.

I picked up a hi-viz that slipped over Mischa from pound shop last year not sure if they still have them.
Not seen trackers,but sure they exist.
I will have same problem next week with the night time walks , but won't be letting either of them off, to many rabbits.

Yes both my boys have them
They are only thin cheap ones from a £1 shop but they are now on their second winter and doing well.
Horrible quality pictures but you get the idea

You misunderstood, it the last pee walk late at night they stay on lead ,
I've tried off lead and Mischa really try's my patience when she knows I can't see her.
I will try and take a pic of ours, it is strong nylon, yellow with irridescent stripe, still ok, am going to try an get one for Bruno.
edited, thanks I have'nt got to do pic now
