codder85 0 Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Why is everyone giving this lad shit? He is happy with his pup because it caught some rabbits. If you think he is running his dog to young then why dont you try and explain why rather than just slate him. I personally dont think the dog is to young aslong as he is getting easy rabbits and not over matching him. any rabbit should overmatch a 5 half month old pup. purposly going lamping with a pup that age is a bit daft, you are running a dog that is still growing like mad, its bones and joints are not formed properly, if you dont sicken the dog you run risk of damaging it anyway could cut down how long it will work for later on in life, and then probably be passed around when its got trouble with its joints because its no good for running.
