When to start a dog

How old do you guys start dogs in woods? I have a walker pup shes 6 month old now

I'd say it's time to start fulling with her now. How hard you push would depend on how she responds. Start getting her to the woods and see what you have to work with. Some take right off some stay puppies until they're over a year old.

I noticed last night she was using her nose a lot around the farm

Bingo
