We've been practicing on the beach but s soon as we get near to woods he's off. He always comes back but only when he's ready. feel like I should just get one of those little folding seats and a pipe to relax while I'm waiting!

Hi Yep I'm still here, just had to reset my password as I couldn't log on !! With being so busy at work and the lack of daylight I've not had much chance to take him out through the day. I did this morning and let him off after about an hour, we were in a field heading back to the Land Rover, he didn't go far from me and did as he was told, I don't think he was too happy though as he tucked his tail right in. I'll keep at it though and hopefully he'll improve. Thanks Richard

Spent a good couple of hours in there with him. He never strayed too far from me but I'm sure he knew he could'nt get out, I'll keep taking him there for a week or 2 then try him further afield.
