Smudge was doing so well with recall but is having a lapse at the moment.

We recall using a whislte, alot easier than bellowing across a field. And he would come straight back everytime.

But now he's had a few rabbits, he's in the zone and is not paying any attention to recall. Got a bit cocky really, and very excited.

Be back to basics by the looks and start again.

Yup that's right...........Clarissa Dickson Wright thought he was lovely. She has a Lurcher too, was chatting to her at the Bath & West Show yesterday.

Had a lovely day up there this year, was a really good show, lots to see. Wolves were great, huge vulture too.

The kids had a fab time running about with the Beagles from the Ilminster Hunt - Smudge was longing to join in - bless!

But he had plenty of backsides to sniff up there aswell - never...
