Agree with micky duck.
Having a stop/sit is vital.
I got a weimaraner at 18 months that had run loose with another dog.
She was bought up with kids so did have manners around people.
Run it on a long lead and teach stop/sit and you are in control.
Best heading dog I had was 12 months old when I got her so age isnt to much of an issue.
Some dogs get started to early.
My father farmed his pups out to his sister in Dunedin then got them back with manners and not started too early.
