oldred58 340 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 The dog is only a pup, dont force it all it takes is time and patience, he is still growing and developing and you can do more harm to his joints by forceing it to jump, walk before you run Quote Link to post
birddog 1,354 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 agree with all of the advice but would add to stay clear of the fence or type of fence that he hurt himself on Quote Link to post
