    Have you tried a longline on the kids? Apparently shock collars are frowned upon

    Last night a few moths were flying around a light making some noise. He showed a good medium eyed stalk and then locked up on them as he got close, 1 front paw up then another step and locked up again on the other front paw.
    Today was his 1st time on a long line. He was excited but got grumpy with the long line. Felt like he had freedom but I was quick to take it away from him. He was quick to learn though and knew exactly what i wanted. I have been finding it hard to put in work with him with my kids around. As expected though, both the kids and pup are excited and easily distracted.

    Bloody hell this dog is impressing me with just how smart and fast learning he is.
    Awesome looking pup there you can just tell he's smart too. Keep us updated on his progress.

    He is an awesome dog, showing a lot of potential. The cocky had his blood lines all written down and i had no bloody idea who they all were. His mother is tied back to Lloyd Smith's Ace. A quick google search showed me who Ace is and his colourings are very similar, so hopefully there's some more potential to come from him. A family member 1st and hunting companion i look forward to leading me around the hills.

    Father and Father-inlaw have asked if i'll give him the chop. I plan on keeping him whole, is this a good idea or not? It'd be nice to possibly get a pup out of him if he proves to be a great dog.

    I let my pointer have his until 3ish, chopping the nuts made him more bidable and gain a little weight. The longer you leave it the longer the saggy bag left behind when you decide to do it

    You will get a whole lot of different takes on whens the best time to fix your dog, if at all.

    I have discussed with a few vets who are also mates and for me I would keep the dogs whole until at least 18montsh old to let them grow. I neutered a dog at 8 months and he was tall lanky and skinny, no health problems but he didnt have the muscle his litter mates did that were not neutered. A dog that grows with hormones tends to be a bit more stocky and rumour has it bone density is better? If I get a dog next time round I will keep him whole unless.

    My current Bitch I have let have 3 heats, she will get fixed this year as I dont want to breed from her, She has finished growing at 2 years old.

    Followed me round spraying for a few hours this arvo, helped round up some naughty calves that went bush, got distracted and started tracking deer trails, jumped in every water trough we came across and went for a proper swim in the pomahaka at the end of the day, its a dogs life. Too tired for the tennis ball this evening. Heat really takes it out of them, look after your wee buddies
