If it was me I'd be leaving it and listen to Fuji listen to somone who knows the game putting a dog that age in this weather while the ground is hard is either gonna be a make or brake is it worth the risk? Sit down and think I would be doing

Get it going now before the cover gets up.it wont learn fxxk all walking round the park.

[arcticgun 4,548]

it wont be fully developed and the grounds to hard 90% of places, you may bnot see the damage now or even three months down the line, however when the goin gets real rough , thats when the tel;ls come , minors become majors injury wise, one weakness starts another, too much too young never leads to longgevity, start young finish young, not many are fully developed by that age most lurchers are at least medium build dogs and they mature later than small breeds and slwer than largher breeds, alwyas hard to predict in x's is growth rates, all individual in litters aint they? my rule is they find it and its all natural then let it happem, that s like say rabit in wood or on field hedges etc I'd really avoid walking say a field full of seats n hares, likesay accidents happen and the dog suprises the arse off you and overcomes and is proved to be mature enough, however thats down tooo nature Id feel a right twat iof i slipped it and it got mullered and jacked or worse even died trying , gassed out and went pop, cos that way Id of killed a real un and they rare

its your dog learn from your own mistakes dont b listening to every 1 that tells u do this dont do that do it and see how it goes if u f**k up well then u have yourself to blame and start again simple u have to learn how to crawl befor u can walk atb

Not to state the obvious but bear in mind that your dog is going to have many a fruitful seasons ahead only you can decide if the dog is ready mentally and physically . We have all been in the same position when you just want the dog to get its first couple of bunnys under it's belt . But what takes months of training and excercise could be ruined in a couple of runs I am sure you will decide whats best

Good luck

Depends on all sorts matey, how its bred, if its a big heave type more chance of damage than a whippety type...... also, how much training/time have you put into it?? caution is good, you've waited 9 months don't mess it all up now?? Perhaps ferret a couple of burrows with nets just to let it see.... you have steadied her to ferrets, right??

I was gonna say take it ferreting, give it a couple. As folk have said biggest enemy is hard ground. Hard to tell when we don't know the terrain your gonna run. If ferreting is no good and the grounds relatively soft, take it lamping. You can pick the runs, farmer sees a lamp, all happy. Just lie and say you got 20 odd etc.

Only you know your Dog.9months still a Baby.Your choice though. But better a Month too late than a Day to early
