Pup Lamping Problem Or Not

[Chris the bass 7]

Hi lads and lasses just a quick question I was out for a quick scan on the fields tonight close to home I went on the first field and seen a squatter so walked towards it and my 10 month collie greyhound ran down towards it cased it and caught it great but on the retrieve he walked around me and stoped and mouthed the rabbit didn't kill it just mouthed it a bit he normaly brings them strait back to me alive right away he's only had 7 rabbits in total I've only had him on the lamp 4times as he's still young I was just wondering if this could be a start of him not retrieving I've done loads of training with him he's been top class all the time since I got him and done every thing I've wanted him to do but just this tonight got me worried or do you think this could just be a one off and I'm just thinking to much ???
