Is it ok??

Hi my springer who is 14 weeks old is coming back on the whistle some thing he has picked up off my older dog. I think it's great. But is it the right thing to be doing when he is still very young??

Re: Is he to old to live out side

Thanks Charlie mac,

Jelinga to be fair they would have a lot more room if they had a kennel out side as the garden and drive isn't small.

Is he to old to live out side

Hi,

I have a nearly two year old springer who has always lived inside with me.... Recently I decided to get another who is 10 weeks old. I am thinking about kennelling them out side. Will this be fair on the older one and do you think he will take to it.

Re: What should I be looking for??

What do you mean by steadiness?? His recalls depends. Yesterday and today he was a nightmare. Other days he's as good as gold but never consistent. Deliverys was some thing we didn't work on as I was told he has to learn all he other stuff first. Recalls lead work stuff like that. His stays are real...

Re: What should I be looking for??

I had some lessons from a trainer and I have to admit they really did help. I picked up on where I was going wrong and felt I learnt quickly.
