Default RE: New Puppy and first time trainer

I wouldn't be very quick on cutting it down just yet my friend. I mean nothing bad by that statement but some dogs that are out of mixes can make some great hunting pets. ThoughI dislike the idea of mixing breeds up but it happens.I am going to guess from whatI am looking at that she is around 3 months old right now. So Iwould start gettingher some general obedience and then start slowly working the commands in if that was me. Get yourself a few wings or a pidgeon some place and see how she handles it. Just do not let her catch them. I would also get a video of one training a pup there is alot of them out there. Some will paint a picture of what you are after. Reading about them should be better once you see what they are trying to do.. Good luck with your pup!
