rocky1 942 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 i surrpose the age depends on the dog not the breed either , i try and get them doubled up on a few first 14 month upwards then by 18 /22 months single ,[preban] Quote Link to post
ruby jet 184 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 if u think the dogs ready at say 18 months old wait another 2 months never a good dog spoiled by being entered to late but to many by being entered to early! Just my way of doing things ! Quote Link to post
coney clucky 93 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 myself mate ive had them start early 10 months old me bull x was but tobe honest it seemed to turn her abit nasty with other dogs and you couldnt fault her on big stuff but she was twat with terriers and never trusted her with owt as ayounger pup she was great with alldogs two or three fox and it all changed Quote Link to post
Guest dances Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 I think I depends both on how your entering and maturatey. Mates dog self entered in the dark one night and jibbed straight away but seen others started slow and still quit. Quote Link to post

fcuktheban 140 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 my dog is 19/20months old collie x gray x collie x whippet x gray and i am just starting to enter him The hills have eyes mate I would enter mine pre ban when ever there was one in front of them. I don't start them too young on anything so they are ready for whatever is in their path. Quote Link to post
coney clucky 93 Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 i no lot of people double up with young dogs and some slip them at any age as long as they with experianced dogs but you hear of people say they wouldnt slip on big gear till them at least had two seasons on the small stuff 1 Quote Link to post
bird 9,937 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 i think its down to each young dog, some will go at 12 months old, and its litter brother could be 18 months old. double couple times then see how it goes, but its in them or it aint, what ever the age . you should have( bit) of a idea at 14 months old 1 Quote Link to post
bigbill110 2 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 i have bull crosses i would start them at about 18mnths some bull lines start later than others had pups start young had them start later depends on the dog really Quote Link to post
