Re: new dog, new whistle (reply) For what it's worth, Pat, I have never used more than one whistle - a single peep for sit/stop, two pips for turn, three pips for recall.	Basic Gundog Training	Eric Begbie 19 November, 2009 15:58:05
Re: new dog, new whistle (reply) Thanks Eric, Should I just use one whistle or should I be using two for each dog? I have three whistle commands, come back, turn and drop. At the moment with my lab I use a single whistle for all three but, as you may have seen from a previous post, she ...	Basic Gundog Training	dogpat 19 November, 2009 13:25:47
Re: another quartering question (reply) What is posted below was first posted on another forum in response to a series of questions about quartering.

Re: Recall is diminishing! (reply) You don't.................ever punish a dog that comes back. If you can call your dog back or if the dog comes back of its own volition you can only say "Good dog" and put it on the lead. You can only chastise if you get after the dog and catch it, more ...

Re: Recall is diminishing! (reply) Thanks - this is very useful. He is usually very good at the stop whistle - however, a couple (and only that - 2 or 3) times recently he seems to have got a scent and bombed off. I was unsure if I should blow the stop whistle as I wouldn't catch him if he ...	Basic Gundog Training	AngelaD 13 November, 2009 23:26:19
Re: Recall is diminishing! (reply) The derogatory term for a dog that is very close to its handler is a "Boot polisher". I know of one spaniel trailler who trains with a dressage whip in his had. Not to beat the dog but if he can't touch the dog with the whip the dog is too far away. I ...	Basic Gundog Training	Des ONeile 13 November, 2009 19:14:41
Recall is diminishing! (topic) Hello - I've taken my dog (Springer) out on his first couple of shoots and generally things are going well. I have focussed on his training as hard as I can. However, as I understand is often the case, suddenly with far more game around he's keen to see ...	Basic Gundog Training	AngelaD 12 November, 2009 19:14:30
Lab sitting slowly to whistle (topic) My lab is about 3 years old now, when I use the stop whistle at distance she is slow to sit, she will sometimes take a few steps nose around a bit and generally decide herself when is the right time to drop. Its my own fault as I have let it develop ...	Basic Gundog Training	dogpat 11 November, 2009 10:38:48

Re: ESS Quartering (reply) yes I had found some of the books quite mis-leading in this regard. Thanks for your info, I will keep it in mind when I get to the training stage. Thanks again, Pat	Basic Gundog Training	dogpat 4 November, 2009 11:49:36
Re: ESS Quartering (reply) Hi Pat, I thi9nk that some of the descriptions of "quartering" painted by some books are misleading. You would almost think that people were working their spaniels on flat, even ground such as root fields or cereal stubbles. Of course you are absolutely ...

ESS Quartering (topic) I have just purchased an ESS pup, 12 weeks old.
