Best way for some types but not all , I find the coursing bred jooks and whippet bred can be started a lot younger than some types .where as a deerhound x or bedlington grey ,and herder types can be totally ruined by being slipped on something that's going to frustrate its young mind when it as no chance of a catch ,also the strain on a body not yet big anufe to cope with run after run . So can b the quick way to destroy a good jook and end up on fb as world beater in a raffle !!! So starting them early isn't always the right way , but it's always good when your young sapling bring

The fluffy brigade have destroyed the whippet x bedlington ,turning it into a lap dog ,show dog . lots of cr@p bred for looks nothing else , im happy the. Dry grey not bred so much as they ruin that as well .
-
Likes been said the show folk fu@cked the bedlington terrier up ,these types were bred as vermin destroyers not lap dogs , also other types started to be used more and the fire in bedlington slowly went to the wall , yes still bedlington types working but they not like the old stuff that worked any vermin from brock to rats ,maybe if they bred best to best they could turn it around befor to late if not to late already . just my opinion

I never keep a jook just for one job,got to be able to work all kinds of land and game ,one trick pony no good for me as just not got the kennel space so a jook must be a all rounder ,I don't care what's in them as long as they keep me happy and try there best that's all we can ask of them .
