All the best with the bitch Gaz, I'm sure she'll make a fine animal mate.

 

But as for lamping this time of year, I just couldn't bring myself to turn the lamp on, just feels wrong to me. The only exception is if you've got permission where the agreement is you keep them to a minimum, to protect vegetation etc. .

nothing wrong with giving a young pup a bit of experience before the season kicks in..

Well done that pup..good start. .as for summer hunting..a good opportunity to get a few runs for a pup is more important than worrying about the odd milky doe etc ..

exciting times ahead atb sesku

Cheers lads for the positive comments.

 

She is Deer/Collie/Grey x Deer/Whip/Grey and stands at 24".

 

It's not ideal lamping this time of year I know. A few lads have called me a summer hunting wanker off this site. Lol. If I was a summer hunter i would of took my older bitch and filled the boot but she hasn't seen the lamp since March and won't see it until October time.

 

I've been taking a lot of advice off Jim over the years and he has always started pups about this age to see what you are working with and what adjustments you need to make if any. Like he says if i waited until winter she would be 15-16-17 months old.

 

Thanks for positive comments. I'm over the moon with her. It's completely different seeing a pup which you have raised from 5 weeks old starting to work compared to working with a dog you brought in as an adult

Listen, if this was a newbie of 2/3 posts stating that he'd caught 16 rabbits whilst out with his pup of not yet 11 months in. . What sort of reaction would he get? But we're all familiar with Gaz, he's a likeable member who posts a lot. . Late August/ September (ground permitting) wouldn't hurt a bit, what's the rush? We all know that later is better than early when it comes to pups. .
