I’m finally getting a puppy(always adopted older Germans). Lost my last one three years ago. My puppy was born last night. So I’m 8 weeks he will be ready to come home. I’m hoping to train him to track deer. But I’d also like to train him to actually be out in the field hunting deer with me. Anyone do this? And does anyone use Germans for this? This puppy comes from a good bloodline(German working line) parents both do ipo competition and his father is apparently really good at tracking, while mom excels in the obedience area. I’m hoping to start training pretty young, this year I will save as much deer blood as I can for tracking training. Anyone else have some books or training advise for getting dogs use to gun shots and getting them well behaved in the field?
