Agree with that...as soon as you can...from the first day you have it if you're all set up for it...

 

Start as you mean to go on with everything from housing it to feeding it and training it...

I dont put mine out till there 5/6 months..

 

Find they are well house trained and dont soil their runs..

 

I like them in the house tho.. Think its bit unfair to band a young pup in a run, mind its always been winter when i have had young dogs on the ground..

 

This time of year would feel a bit better about it..

We usually have our in the house until about 8/9 weeks, then out in the pen in the day and in the house in the eve / night till about 4-5 months, so all the house training etc can be done, then in the pen full time. Not saying its the right way, just our way.
