Not even read any comments to this post but I really don't understand lads working their dogs before muscle and bone are not fully developed and apart from not been phisyically ready they are not mentally ready at this age, agree or disagree but it's a fact ?
Nothing wrong with if there pushing stuff out or hunting for themselves in letting them have a couple of chases. Couldn't be waiting 18 month to 2 years before showing a dog abit of game.
