Did the dog get hurt when breaking in?

[winch 2]

no mate,but he did get a bit spooked by the gun on his 1st dig so it could be that he,s only been to ground twice,he,s alawys been abit nervy from a pup.

get out and dig him a few rats out. should get used to shovel around and over himself. helps build its confidence.

Give the dog some experience doing his job. Work makes a dog nothing else. If the dog is thinking about the digging his mind is not on his job. See how he goes next season.
