Had an accident, with a bitch pup of 6 months old going to ground and having to be dug out a few years ago.It was an extremly tight place and when I broke through charlie had tried to bolt but she had it by the brush and hung on for grim death,til I dug her out.

Thanks for the comments lads just out of interest what age did you hold them back till after they entering so young? P.s. did the dogs turn out any thing decent in the end?

i held her back till she was 14 months,she turned into a good single handed worker that could be dug to on a regular basis.not saying she was a world beater but a realiable digging dog all the same

Had quite a few start early gave a friend a pup i bred and it was dug @ 6mths, and its litter sister @7mths, then a dog n bitch out of a different litter started @ 8mths and and they were used with the local hunt for 2 seasons and a different hunt for 2 seasons after that solid they are now 5 and work good enough for me. I now have 4 pups i bred 3 @ 8mths n they are desperate for work so they want it they can have it for me. i believe you can hold them back n they seem to go off the boil. Just don't over do it, and make sure you can get in quick enough so that there cofidence isn't knocked.

But as we all no everyone is different and they'll be a lot shaking there heads but if they have there teeth n a good jaw let em at it.
