iceman001979 1,316 Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 all depends on the breed off the dog but l would wait till about 18 months but had 1 just took 2 it before 13 months butthat was just 1 dog. so about 18 19 moths for me and with another dog at 1st for the 1st few times Quote Link to post

baiter09 0 Posted November 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 bull saluki greyhound i was thinking of.if it was before the ban would i ruin him if hes slipped at 14 months?BEFORE THE BAN Quote Link to post
Mr Jones 4 Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) In general terms I would imagine that it would do no harm but there is a risk and it's quite a big one, if it was to take a bit of a pounding you may find in the future they will chase but not take, you may think the biter backer has cunningly out run the dog but the actual fact is the dog does not really want to take it. You will know yourself, if the dog has plenty of adult agression and has lost all it's puppy traits then I'd go for it. Maybe start of on a female biter backer though or as per mickeyboy's post. Just my opinion. atb Mr Jones Edited November 13, 2009 by Mr Jones Quote Link to post
