until morale improves!
So Topaz has brought me a bunch in "to hand" but when he only stands over them and wags his tail telling me to come pick them up, how many times, or for how long should I beat him to teach him to bring them to hand??? I've been picking up the antler and chasing him around with it + hitting him with it for 100 yards or 10 good whacks or until I start wheezing... whichever comes first.
Any advise as it hasn't worked?? I think I need to beat him with antlers in the house where he can't get away as easy and where I won't get as winded.
Also in whose totals do "his" horns end up?? I've been told that I can no longer count "his" as "mine" even though he makes me carry "his" home on "my" back?? What does the rules committee say about this? It may be a coincidence but the people who say I cannot count his do not have horn-finding-dogs.
It is all very confusing and complicated and makes me just want to go for a walk but I cannot as it is a flippin' blizzard outside...
Here are the best 3 singles from "our" pile- I aint sayin' who found which so as to keep my options open! 72,80,87"
Here is the track record of the 87 for the last years, @201.5 and 199.75
