malc1 544 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 ive run my dog two up from a pup and and im running my 6 month old pup as well its never hurt them they run well two up and i think its cos they have run from pup with other dogs and the dogs they run and have run with have been run the same so they all know what to do and work together as a team Quote Link to post
mick c 411 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 good dogs should run alone . crap dogs need doubling up in my opinion . unless you have a pup or unexperienced dog Quote Link to post
Guest born to run1083 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 (edited) edited to say above post you read my mind lol surely once your pup comes to adult hood malc1 he will be ran single surely, as on a rabbit two lurchers is over kill and arnt really being tested to the full, anyone can admit a doubled up anything is easyer to catch then ran single.

Guest born to run1083 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 aye from the competion trigger2 is that what you mean doubled up, obviously only one dog can put a catch in but the odds do turn in your favour having two dogs on them surely. you are right tho mate when doubled it ain't always the best dog that gets the catches. the way to sort that is see them single like you agree that gives you a true indication to how good they are, do you agree trigger2 or do you think different Quote Link to post

That's very true often the fastest dog push the quarry away from the slower dog. Quote Link to post
