Awk my Gwp's are fully trained the year before they are born and then the year after they die, in between they just try my patientsKeith Edmunds said:

It's also not generally true, they take the HZP the autumn after they were born but are not fully trained until they subsequently take the VGP, usually in the following autumn, but they can take it at any age.Wow!!

I've never had any dog that is 'fully trained'...It's also not generally true, they take the HZP the autumn after they were born but are not fully trained until they subsequently take the VGP, usually in the following autumn, but they can take it at any age.
Dan I will coment on your last part, we are doing everything legal and with the police whilst carrying a firearm people can say what they think but there where those in a meeting that where told how things are from the legal point of view from the people who made the law, I will not comment any further on this here as it really is a waste of time. regards wayne.
Fantastic videos keith!
These teckels are really a tenacious little dog
As the saying goes "it's not the size of the dog in the fight................................"
Keep them coming.

I'll just put this last one up as the previous failed. As mentioned earlier, this is 'rousing and driving' training and the boar are more irritated than scared of the diminutive dogs but that doesn't detract the risk to the dogs - it is a hazardous occupation and they need their wits about them to avoid injury. Again Mihajlo's dogs from kennel Janior. It get's quite interesting at 2 minutes in the water.
Same round here be a good lurcher tackle a county meath red stag lolI’d be pretty reluctant to do it tbh in this day and age with the way hunting with dogs is it isn’t worth the hassle you are guilty until proven innocent end of. I ran lurchers on deer in the past when it was legal and tbh a dog soon learns to tip them over at speed without damaging much but looking back was it humane no probably not would I do it agin definitely not.Reading further back on the comments without wanting to argue but I ran half cross bull greyhounds 45-50 kg dogs and they wouldn’t of taken a red stag not a prayer the things would just keep running with the poor dog hanging on like a tick
There have been some interesting and valid comments made in this thread about the question you asked,So, I've seen in a few threads now dogs taking Injured deer down and baying, mostly by pointers. Is this a trait of the dog? Or is it trained in to them? Also, what's the biggest species of deer to let a dog after? Genuinely interested in this
yes we tracked it for some 400 yards before filmingwas the deer that moved left to right up hill at the start of the clip the one ye were tracking ?
There have been some interesting and valid comments made in this thread about the question you asked,
some of the comments have been very valid and some very negative,
Here is a film of how a trained dog can be of use when you have a really mobile deer.
this is a very mobile roe buck which had been shot in the front leg and without a dog that can track and be released to hold at bay it would have suffered,
this film was filmed by me while in Europe following a tracking team yesterday,
I was there with other members of UKDTR who where also with tracking teams following them and gaining more knowledge.
I have released my own hound while on tracks in the UK but as they say your always learning,
hope this little film helps you Hendrix rifles to understand a little more
