martin 332 Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I'd say she was a bit too young to be allowed to do anything,but,it wouldn't hurt to take him and let him see what goes on,just to give him an idea of what is expected.What is the make up of the pup mate?Th etrouble is that his bones/muscles/tendons/ligaments aren't formed properly yet,and you could do serious damage to the pup,so it's not worth it.Don't be tempted to rush the pup,let him be what he is (a growing playful puppy).Plenty of time,it's easier to break one than make one..............................Martin.

tyson 1 Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 i like to let a dog see plenty of action from a young age , but try not to run it..just keep with basics for now like jumping n stuff..the most common injury to young dogs is damaging the TIBIA CREST its just below the stifle. this leads to a very long lay off....i know cos my bitch done it and luckily shes ok now but im still very conscious about it...just get her a few droppies till shes ready for proper work Quote Link to post
