Meet Tink my naughty lurcher puppy!! She is everything I don't like in a puppy, independent, chases cats, car sick, has more of a screw you (if anything) response when you call her as opposed to the usual puppy type this is more interesting....one more minute...version
Anyway. This is her

Joking aside, my mum bred her, mum is 3/4 whippet 1/4 bedlington dad is whippet, bedlington and a splash of collie. I have been helping here and there with the puppies but took charge last Wednesday, poor pooch has found boot camp abit of a shock!! Car, horse, friends house all in one day!! Since then she is actually proving pretty good to train, iv trained lots of dogs, cats and horses but she is the trickiest...!! She sometimes comes to her name now (which I might point out she knew at 4/5 weeks old and 'forgot') she knows sit...sometimes. And has stopped spewing in the car (well, we've done three clear trips - I'm hopeful we've turned a corner...!)
She always has been really good where house training is concerned, she still living in an outside kennel at the moment with a buddy whilst it is SO hot but goes straight into the field for a wee when you let her out! Bless!
Any hardcore lurcher fans got training advice?! She is on the lead until she knows her manners apart from when we walk all of the dogs together and I have tasty treats but she's abit 'meh' about them, thinking of swapping to cat treats...
Also where to get coats from. Might get them cheap now...
