Let them breed and give your dogs a rest. That's always been the way. End of Feb max for me. If you got pups on get them around all types of live stock jumping fences ditches all sorts of mooching around. Get them used to everything and ready for the winter coming. Call outs are fair enough and certainly won't wipe out next seasons sport.
Don't no if it's just me but after a hard season I look forward to relaxing myself and nothing serious. Couldn't be f****d out hunting in concrete ground and red hot sun.
