stormyboy 1,352 Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 66bunnies at under 8mths? good going that, i wouldnt eeven have started a pup yet but each to their own i suppose, how old was the pup when you started it mate? started taking him out at 7 and a half weeks watching and learning. That early stuff has obviously ruined him,like most said it would. As for the malamute blood- makes him even worse eh? Nice strong pup trigger,doing you proud. Quote Link to post

Nice strong pup trigger,doing you proud. cannot deny that at under 8 mths he seems to be flying, BUT at 8mths i would be selecting my pups slips and limiting its runs to 3 max a night, and gradually build that up to full nights lamping and taking it out at 7 1/2 weeks to watch? what sort of distance are you making it walk? cant be good for its bones or joints if you ask me, could cause it to burn out at an earlier age but then maybe not, a pup should be a pup till its ready to grow up imo, but im not knocking it and makes me think again as it seems to be working for you, ATB Quote Link to post
