at what age to walk a pup

[maitland93 13]

In a weeks time the pup will get its last jab then a week after that he can go on the back field for a walk but how far would you say to take him and at what age can a start doing the miles with him ?

Same as my pup mate due his last jab on the 28th putting the lead on him every night for a couple of mins..he loves it.. NOT !!.I have 800 acres of pasture (with plenty sheep !!) which I will give him an hour on every night..no pressure and see how he goes.

pesonally i would just walk him round the block 1/2 a day till about 4/6 month and then just build him up slowly let everything grow the way it should,but everyone has loads of different ways of doing stuff ,your dog you do as you wish the responsibilty lies with owner

it his responsibility rocky,however he was asking for peoples advice so he could do the right thing.

Thats perfect bud, get him playing with ya, get down on the ground and roll round like a gobshite with him, play will increase his attachment to you, its all pups want to do really, best of luck with him
