Can anyone help me

Post by fox » Tue Feb 19, 2008 2:04 pm

Hi
I have a lovely vizsla since she was a puppy. She comes from a good hunting background and i have seen both her parents working.I waited three years to get her as they are very hard to get.At 12 months old i introduced her to the gun and there was no problem but shortly after this she got a very severe shock from a farmers electric fence.Now she wont hunt she will walk behind me and just wont hunt and now she is nervous of the gun also.When i put up the gun she runs in between my legs and wont hunt .Can anyone give me some good advice.Maybe this has happened someone else. Thanks

My advice is put up the gun and start over. Get her on birds and more birds. Try planting birds then work up to the wild ones. Get her excited about birds and I bet she will come out of it.......Scott
