He just wondering if anyone is working Teckels, and how you're getting on with them. I had one years ago , he was ok and did the job although he didn't shine, however I love their look and character
jagare i think you cant dismiss a breed because of ones failing like they say its not bad dogs its bad owners ,we are all learning at this game ,we expect these dogs to be outgoing so they do the job of tracking game and you have to keep an eye on any dog unless you got a big fat lab no offence to big fat labs.i dont let my dogs hunt until they track the hunting gives to many ops for bad habbits,Jagare said:I made the mistake with my Teckle and started hunting with him before the tracking was completed. He tracks but not as well as i hoped.
I trained a teckle bitch that i sent to my mate doghound. He has trained the bitch further and i think that little bitch will hold its own against any tracking dog.
But the problem is that they are not dogs that are easy to take stalking with you. You have to keep an eye on them all the time otherwise they are off hunting.
My boy Charlie

Jagare said:Pauljagd, don't try and teach your granny how to suck eggs. I have a cesky terrier for tracking and very good he is too. My teckle is for hunting roe. He comes from one of the best hunting lines in Sweden. I did say i made a mistake when training him to tracking by hunting him before he was ready. I know when i have made a mistake.
Not for one second would i suggest that a teckle would not make a excellent tracking dog. BUT THEY ARE NOT EASY TO TAKE WITH YOU WHEN YOU STALK. If you want a dog to walk by your side whilst stalking there are better breeds for that.
I have a Kopov in training and he won't be entered to boar till he is fully trained at tracking.
Sorry Jagare only been doing the job for over 20 years and as i said most of a dogs faults come from us as they start to learn as soon as they open there eyes .so tell me you have a dog for each species you hunt.and i must say all my dogs walk to heel when stalking without a hunting lead sit under a high seat without a lead blood trail on a lead and will free hunt yes Teckle and Bavarian.
So tell me what would your best all round breed be as an allrounder .
