young eager pup

[hunter16 0]

just looking for some advice on my 5 and a half month pup.... the way my grandfather always entered hes dogs was when he thought they could do the job.... well i planned on entering my pup at about 8 months but he all ready has caught a rabbit by himself while out lamping at 4 months.... (and i only took him for the exercise before some of you start attacking me!) but he is always eager to give chase when he sees a bunny on our walks..... what do you lot think?? i dont do much during summer not even once a fortnight.... should i give him a run or two???

IMO wait a wee while , 5 months is still way to young , but every dog is differnt , and only you know your dog , ..

 

good look with it ,

id wait aswell if hes eager 2 go now he will be even more eager at the start of d season when he is 8 r 9 months old u could break him very easy at 5 months old if he misses a few rabbits while lamping he could get board and give up on coursing them so id say hold off and ul have a very determind pup for d up comeing season all the best with bud

some have the physical attributes to catch at 5 months but mentally they are still vey immature...........drill home training throughout the summer and by the beginning of next season he should be about ready to go solo
