lamping_dave 24 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I have a pup saluki, collie, whippit which is 6 months old, I am not starting her off till next season now as I don't want to ruin her, but I have been reading on some threads people are starting them off around 7months old, me personally wouldn't due to mine being still puppyish playing etc, just wondered what age the majority off peopke start their pups off, cheers dave Quote Link to post
ihatealiens 0 Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 Personally I dont do a tap with mine until 12 months sometimes later. Mind you all my dogs are big brutes so they need time to mature. Not so sure about the more racey whippety types I would imagine you could start them a little earlier. Quote Link to post
