We adopted Jake a few months ago and were aware he had done some gundog training. Am doing one to one lessons with Abby and took Jake along one week too and we discovered he knew a lot. Which begged the question why rehome as a pet rather than a shooting one - it seems he has a hard mouth.
Am enjoying the training with Abby and would like to do more with Jake, not sure if we would ever get onto game in which case is it not a problem anyway. Just wondered though is there a way to encourage him to carry things more gently or is this not possible/pointless. At the moment all it means is we get through tennis balls at an alarmng rate 8O
Apologies if this is a really daft question.
