hi having a little problem with the dog lol. hes well behaved and when walking i very rarely have him on the lead, he sees cats, other dogs ect and comes straight to me when i call him. however hes got this crazy fetish for rabbits which i dont care about and sheep.
the sheep thing is dangerous, i took him for a walk today and some of the farmers sheep got out and he bolted, i call him and its as if hes totally in the zone and cant hear me and hes after blood. he circled the entire of the 6 sheep until they were in a circle and had his paws holding a sheeps head with his mouth over its head. i just caught up with him and managed to stop him killing the sheep by throwing the lead at him (i wasnt close enough). I then chased him until he went after a the largest sheep that i knew he wouldne be able to catch, all this time the swine is totally deaf to my commands.
I got him back but im lucky the farmer wasnt in this field cause he would have shot him. how the hell do i stop this? i bought an e collar before but he barely feels it. i know most people will say just put him on the leash all the time but i think thats a cop-out. any advise? hes sheep crazy, you wouldnt belive the difference between him walking through the park playing with dogs cats and kids and then a total savage when he sees a sheep.
