RE: When To Start Training My Lab.
Travis......keep on playing with and enjoying your pup......at this point (age) you are laying the foundation for the training that will come down the road. For now....keep it fun and develop the bond with your pup! Introduce him to birds....(clipped wings) play fetch with him...etc...etc....let him play around in the fields.....take him to the water (if you are somwhere warm) and like Doc said...get yourself a good training book and stick to it step by step. Too many folks buy all the books and skip over certain things and they usually run into problems down the road by doing so.
Good Luck and Have Fun
