The rule is that the pup has to be 6 months old to be plaed on bench, but does a dog that age have to run in the field? I dont like to start my dogs until they are 7 to 8 months old, but have a male that I would like to get on bench at the little world.

Puppy bench doesn't have to enter the field.

sweet! thanks.

You didn't specify which registery or format. In UKC , pups entered on bench must be entered in the field. So avoid UKC , if you don't want to run him yet.

arha says they don't have to be entered in the field till they are a year old i think.
