Running pen in Southeast Iowa (starting and conditioning)
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 4:58 pm
Gonna have my running pen open to start a few pups for people in late July early August. I would like pups to be atleast 6 months of age.
My pen is 13 acres of natural rabbit habitat, just replanted 4 acres in native grasses rest is brush and hinge cut trees that is thick, all wild rabbits and as close to natural population that I can keep, I like a pup to have to hunt to find game and stick with it, I usually will start pups with an old dog and as soon as they are going some they do it by themselves, old dog just helps speed up process. I will only take a few pups a month and may take a dog or 2 to condition. Dogs need to be current on vaccines and need flea and tick preventetive or I will furnish a collar with a tag. I live in the extreme SE corner of the state. If interested give me a call (319)-470-2380 or PM me Thanks Scott
