starting a dog on fox pre ban

[danny300 2,240]

as the question is stating a young dog on fox how many lads think you should double up for the first few slips to get your dog going cheers danny

I think it helps a young dog to have another one show it the ropes.

But I suppose everyone enters dogs different and will have different opinions.

i would aways double it up with another dog for the first few it makes the job a lot easyer and the young dog doesnt get to many sore bites before it learns how to do the job and gets scunnerd !

hi danny 300 good topic i always pair my young dogs up with a old dog i think they stand a better chance of making the grade. thats my thought on the matter might not be everyones.

Danny it goes without saying, its the norm to double up a young dog on a red, the best was to ruin a pup is to enter it single on its first fox.

You also run the risk when running doubled up of the young dog getting the teeth end one of the dogs has got to take a bit of stick :-( it happened to a mate of mine over 30 stitches a £600 vets bill and 6 weeks out of action :-0

i normally double up to begin with or let the older dog take some wind out of it then slip the pup in but everyones got there own methods

[rabbit mad 10]

what about two dogs that havent done them before

[chrisbullx 2,541]

I like to double them up for the first few to give a young dog confidence & learn the knack how to kill them!!! Atb cbx
