if i were you roxy, i would only give her/him 1 slip a night on an easy rabbit, don't take it out every night, once or twice a week for 2-3 hrs to begin with is plenty, go out in the windiest-wettest night when the moon is low, how old is your pup? this is the way i have been doing it and it's paying of for my pup(although i have had help from my freind and his dog) and it's keeping her keen as mustard, cheers......john
She,s nine months now,only taking her out lamping 3/4 hours once a week,also a bit of ferreting,
