dogs-n-natives 1,182 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Deffo not too young, Ive been taking my son out with me since he was a few months old, digging, trapping, shooting, fishing, lamping, hounds, you name it, I am not with his mother any more, so when I have him, he comes out with me.. in a carrier on my back when he was tiny. He loves it! He is 4 now, and I am pleased with how he is coming on. I think younger the better, as they enter easily and take it all in their stride, nothing shocks my lad he has seen it all. Ive even hung him in a tree in his carrier as I dig to the terrier! He loves being out. And is like a tornado in the house, so much better in the woods and fields he can run riot. All the best with your son mate, I am sure he will be asking you to take him out again! 9 Quote Link to post
Vicky Steadman 328 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 i'd rather my kid (whenever I have any) was out in the wild, watching things like that than sitting in front of its computer or the tv!! start them young, get good clean air into their lungs, let them use their exuberant toddler energy in a natural way running in woods and fields, learn to deal with falling down like big brave boys & girls etc.getting them used to death early on can only be a good thing - my little half brother cried for England when his rabbit died, I felt bad that he was so miserable. 2 Quote Link to post
