My vicious little guard dog had never had any contact with horses before.
I took him around the field of this job, he smelt the pile and rolled in it! How did he know?

upping the ante on training now, a pigeon came into my possession this morning so I thought I'd give him a whirl on "cold game retrieval"
I had collies as a kid. Never had any training of any sort, but I'd play with them for hours every day during the summer school holidays. They were literally on an understanding and totally knew what I wanted them to do. One fetched my shoes from outside once when I couldn't find them and was searching inside for ages. Crazy stuff.
Just tried to find a video of the *****. Don't seem to have it in my usual storage. Unfortunately she ended up with cancer and had tumours riddled through her. Where her legs rubbed on the skin of her body they started to develop there on the outside so we had to call it a day. She was 100% normal in herself and for a week I was arguing with my parents saying she's fine (I didn't understand) so I spent the week doing things with her that she'd normally not do so often.
Bought a video camera (yeah had to do that sort of thing back then we didn't carry one around in our pockets permanently like we do now) and filmed her for hours a day playing in fields and streams and whatnot.
It was later in life when I got two miniature yorkies that I realised dogs were usually thick as a plank and didn't understand you unless you had a biscuit in your hand.
Had a male dog after, again a collie, and he was a stray for a couple of years and kept getting caught by the dog warden. He seemed to have a thing for getting annoyed with car headlights and would bark at them and try and send them off when I was walking with him, felt secure I guess. But when my parents took him out in the dark he'd hide behind them when he saw headlights, I assume in case it was a warden.
Really got on with them dogs I did. Used to take them everywhere. And it was well before the time of chavs having a bulldog or terrier to come across 'hard' so it was quite unusual to see a lad on his BMX with a collie chasing him around.

a really desirable attribute in a gundog is a "soft mouth", this means that when it's retrieving it's not gonna crunch the hell out of the game it's bringing back to you. After the pigeon training I thought today that I'd try young Elvis with an egg, a fresh egg straight out of the nesting box. Elvis is 5 months old today and he's teething, ie, about to loose his puppy teeth and at this stage dogs tend to chomp down on things....I think I've got a good soft mouthed pup 🙂
