last thing before we go tonight, assuming so one objects to a light ending after a heavy week, there is still a major outstanding and unsettled question about major. is he as we ve been told a good boy who did a bad thing and getting a nondog sister? craig melvin went there after the interview truthfully on more pressing matters with the president this week.
and to see, yeah, ewes dead, lying in the field in distress, is. how do you explain that? yeah, i can only say, your heart sinks. why do you let your dogs off a field full of sheep? and he s not alone. in dartmoor, there have been 52 attacks on livestock reported so far this year. i m getting calls almost daily about dog attacks. the injuries that sheep suffer through dogs are absolutely horrendous. in the hot weather, they can end up getting maggots onjust a small little bite mark, or the stress alone from chasing them can mean that they abort their lambs. it s a real problem. going to go short, back in, praise when back. there has been an 11% increase in pet ownership since lockdown, with many more of us now getting dogs. and that s why training courses like these are so important if we are to keep our dogs under control in the countryside. come, mouse, come, mouse, come!
i were invited along. all the distractions and smells of being outside within the confines of safe strict schooling. people have had the lockdown puppies, and they re now showing signs of either anti social behaviour or potentially chasing livestock. my advice is not to let your dogs out to chase anything, whether that s squirrels, rabbits, pheasants, because ultimately if your dog is going to start to chase a squirrel, then they re going to chase deer, livestock, anything, really. sit, sit. leave it. we used to call her betsy bonkers, ok, so this is why we had to do a couple of courses. she s a cockapoo, they re very bright, they need stimulation, and it s an ongoing feast with this one. if i m not continually reinforcing her training, we are going to have problems. i think anybody who doesn t try and train their dog
my whippet mouse and i were invited along. all the distractions and smells of being outside within the confines of safe strict schooling. people have had the lockdown puppies, and they re now showing signs of either anti social behaviour or potentially chasing livestock. my advice is not to let your dogs out to chase anything, whether that s squirrels, rabbits, pheasants, because ultimately if your dog is going to start to chase a squirrel, you know, then they re going to chase deer, livestock, and anything, really. sit, sit. leave it. we used to call her betsy bonkers, ok, so this is why we had to do i a couple of courses. she s a cockapoo, they re very bright, they need stimulation, and it s an ongoing feast with this one. if i m not continually i reinforcing her training, we re going to have problems.
chasing livestock. my advice is not to let your dogs out to chase anything, whether that s squirrels, you know, rabbits, pheasants, because ultimately if your dog is going to start to chase a squirrel, you know, then they re going to chase deer, livestock, and anything, really. sit, sit. leave it. we used to call her betsy bonkers, ok, so this is why we had to do - a couple of courses. she s a cockapoo, they re very bright, they need stimulation, and it s an ongoing feast with this one. if i m not continually i reinforcing her training, we re going to have problems. i think anybody who doesn t try and train their dog properly is a fool. and an anti social fool. the national sheep association say two thirds of farmers they surveyed have seen an increase in dog attacks since lockdown.
