yea thats a bit too far for me!

tennis court is a good idea, i was thinking about maybe a dog rescue center, they usually have enclosed fields?
I doubt they let GP exercice their dogs there though

you know i might just do that!

Id love to find one i could use as much as possible, as i hope to get an irish setter in the not too far future, would be handy for the early training days!

We do have one up at the kennels i work at (lab breeding kennel)
but i know my dog would just drive all the labs mad, he likes to tease!

henley on thames - do you know it?

yeah loads of countryside, but none enclosed, if its open my boy will run off, he seems to just go off on one, very unpredictable, i thought i was getting somewhere with him, then he bolted on me last weekend

got one!

I just hate seeing him on lead, he is good offlead 90% of the time, but like i said he is unpredictable he just bolts for no reason, last time it was just for 10 mins through the woods, time before that, gone for 30 mins, went home, across 60MPH road!

i nearly had a heatattack!

I just keep trying, but dont feel like im getting anywhere!

Maybe a post in the 'training' section asking for tips might help? perhaps someone knows how to deal with it? give it a go!
