    Not at all, most people start to early, your timing is probably close to ideal!

    I do use those plastic dummies which last forever, but find the canvas ones, less durable, are more accepted by most dogs.

    i'm in the same boat, collie pup is coming on a year old. had great intentions to use him for deer indicating and it hasnt happened yet. the couple of trips he has been on recently went really well, even if he was only indicating on goats!
