bringing the dog on

[Rabbithunter 456]

 

 

 

 

As many of you know, this is my wee bitch pup that hasn't had much work into her, as she is only 10 months old.

 

I know of a few fields that are bordered by rabbit fencing, I usually find that rabbits find it hard to get back through the fencing on a night.

 

I was thinking of taken the dog out tonight (if my brother will take me to the place) and trying to run a few of these bunnie's. Now although she hasnt much experience i think a few short slips wouldn't do her any harm, i give her a run the other night and she ran down the beam about 60yards.

 

Opinions please, should i do it or wait until there is an experienced dog on hand to run aside her?

 

Cheers

Its a case of suck it and see. At 10 months i'd try her on a few easy slips, just make sure you get between the rabbits and the fencing, good luck......

Just as Si says, suck it and see..........if it looks like she is struggling or if she starts to open up put her back on the lead........you know your own dog!
