Rebanne Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 So do you believe they can distinguish between lure coursing and chasing the cat? Probably a dumb question sorry. She said he'd revert back to race dog Al rather than sleepy, easy going Al. I thought maybe encouraging them to chase the lure would perhaps make them less enclined to chase the cat? I'm still semi-keen to give him a shot at it Just one go to see if he did get too sore. Cat is still on holidays with my sister. It really would depend on the dog of ANY breed. Plus my cats are confined to the house and cattery, not loose in the backyard with the dogs. Sam chased anything that moved, it was movement that would set him off. I could walk him down the street, a cat would run across the road ahead of us, he would be very keen to chase, we would walk past same cat sitting still on the footpath right under his nose and Sam would be looking for the thing that moved quickly. Couldn't care less about cat sitting still. Yes Sam would often pull up sore after a run but I would never deny him his basic right to run hard and fast. It was his life. I did was put him back on lead if I thought he had done enough. In his eyes he had never done enough. It's a judgement call, may be best to see how Al reacts to the cat first. I've had Earl, my foster for 2 weeks now. He's fine with my cats but I wouldn't let him lure course yet. I would want to know him way better.

2tollers Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 I'll apologise for my dog's behaviour in advance because I've been sick for a while and they're (Todd anyway) bound to be naughty. It'll be good to wear him out. :fetch: :fetch: :fetch: :fetch: :fetch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
