my brothers terrier used to do that mate when we took it ferreting, it used cower in the holes, that was around the same age the more it went out the more confident it got now its a crackin lil dog if thats any help

Couldnt agree more. Dogs mature at different rates, an yours is still a pup.

a wouldnt put it near any holes mate, they can and will enter even earlier than that, and that spells nowt but trouble.

atb with the pup mate.

cheers boys i didnt want him to enter at all untill he was at least 14 months old,but he was running off the lead along with the lurcher and she marked the hole and then he lay down it about 2 foot,it really confused me cuz im only in terriers a couple of years and all the terriers i had i bought them already working anything i did buy,and i never seen a pup doing that be4,thats why i wnted to ask you more experanced hunters too see what youes thought,that has really helped geers lads.

my red done that but just to stop my russel working he didnt have the confidence. then i took him out on his own and he self entered and done a good job at that so givem time..
