Hunting stories

An effective tool for training, we found from the first steps. It offal, to an unclean, finely chopped, with a hideous smell, from which the dog drooled. For her sake, she was ready to run fast, to be cautious and give it in her hand. Remained the smallest thing – to explain to the dog what is required of it, at the same time to follow your emotions, that, in a fit, of rage not to down to “a dog squeal”.

Our joint work was making hard with a creak. In the courtyard a dead duck flew through the fruit trees, “Lotta” ran after it, grabbed and carried it to the offal feeder, then, wagging its tail, demanded compensation. The most difficult element in all this simple combination was to get the bird in the hand. The dog threw it, not, reaching a few steps, or then, tightly clenched jaw, did not give the extracted prey. Sometimes even a piece of delicacy could not cure a dog of greed. However, time and labor will all erase. Now the dog can be training on the street and without the offal. Moreover, unlucky dog-owners are surprised: – “It is necessary, what clever dog.”

After exam, the inveterate loves hunter dogs will tell: – “Your dog received a diploma, because you prayed to your God, otherwise, how to explain the miracles of transfiguration.”

Out of ten dogs, presented on the first day, only six received, a field test diploma, and, those who did not pass the exam were well prepared.

I do not deny it I prayed and did not just pray, but with zeal. Moreover, I advise others to do the same.

Traditionally, on the field trials, hunters drive up in the evening. They arrange camp, light campfires, prepare field dishes, and enjoy the conversation all night, remembering the history of the adventures of the past year.

Vladlen for the past ten years has not missed camp’s meeting, and has always been at the center of discussions. After all, he is a dog-owner with a long experience. Prior to the Stasi, he kept a jag terrier, and came to the trials with him. This time he had a direct interest. In addition to his dog, puppies were exhibited – direct descendants, and this, with a lucky coincidence, additional points to her pedigree.
