He's house trained now seems pretty forward too, time will tell I guess. Im not after a Dog that will kill more Rabbits than mixy, want to work him for his own enjoyment rather than mine. But I suppose it all comes down to "You get out what you put in" whether He's kept inside or out?? -

Bit of a brain picker, last month I had my 13yr old Lurcher bitch put to sleep. For the first 18 month I had her sleeping outside in a kennel, she used to work well day and night. Then I kept her in the house, take her out and she was still Keane as Mustard. Just got a new pup and wondered if keeping him in the house from a young age is going to effect his working ability. Any advice/constructive criticism appreciated......atb Rhys.
