Will still be short on completing his vaccinations too Id guess. You will want to get basic commands sorted first. STOP and Heel. Get him used to a rope/lead.

I've got some deer legs in the freezer, should I drag them along lawn and get him to find them ?

i found with my wirehair, just the skin was good enough to drag around and chew, drag along the ground and hide it and getting my girl to track then hard core praising when the skin is found. my girl is still work in progress but she is learning everytime we hit the bush.
