minion 29 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Picked up my copy of Countrymans this week and glanced at the letters to the editor section. Couldn't believe the letter published by someone called Tony Webb. He is saying pups should be taken lamping at 4 months old!! What a lot of nonsence!! 4 months is only 16 weeks - still bloody puppies! I actually cant believe they would publish that to be honest. Is it just me or is there something wrong with that?

hunter cammo 0 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) well in my opinion geting your pup out at 4 month is neather right or wrong its upto each indavidual.i personly get my dogs out early not expecting them to be killers but to show them the other dogs doing the buisness and leting them get a run around at squaters.i would say it does them good watching another dog running turning catching and retrieving.just my opinion though.

I gave my bitch a rabbit that I was pretty sure she'd take on the lamp at 7/8 months and then left it at that. Keep them winning and keep frustration out of the equation. Quote Link to post
