its ma baw 51 Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 my lurcher is 7month 1week old 26inch in hight and wanting to go for everything Good time to be 7 months, by the time the season starts, he'll be the perfect age. When he's 9 month mate and your out on your walk, let him chase the odd 3/4 grown rabbit but try and make sure the odds are in the favour of the dog. Letting a dog watch a rabbit run away on the lead can have a negative affect so, its just all a learning curve. You just don't want him to be chasing lost causes without any outcome, thats a sure way of encouraging him to yap. Quote Link to post
