On rabbits i start at 13/14 months only a couple of runs then give a month off and start to build them up slowly only giving them the eaiest rabbits possible to boost there confidence if you start them too young and give them rabbits they have no chance of catching you will ruin the dog that's how i start my pups off

Depends on the dog mate all dogs are different

Think everyones different when it comes to starting dogs off a believe in starting, early every day their still learning do them no harm at all.

depends on breeding of the dog ie a whippet will mature physiclly and mentally quicker that a big deer hound cross

Read your pup and you will know.

My pups come out with me from as soon as they can, but it depends on what you regard as "run." Now I wouldn't lamp my pups too young, but saying that it's good to give them a taster, to encourage their drive.

Only you can tell, saying that if your not sure, hold back until they are well developed and then introduce sloooowly.

Good luck mush.
