pipmc90 1 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Been lamping a handful of times but now I thinking it is time to strike out on my own so I would like some advice, everything from buying my first dog to catching my first rabbit. Cheers lads Quote Link to post
J.DOG 1,355 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Best advice I can give you is don't rush things take your time it's good you have been out hunting several times anyway so get yourself a pup that suits you and get it from good working stock.let the pup be a pup don't work it too early just enjoy the dog and enjoy hunting.
