Mine is just over 6 months,and i don't just want a dog to find the deer I shoot,but a companion when stalking.
He's my first teckel and I have no comparison,but he's not like the lab or spaniel i have.He' extremely friendly with everyone and anything, and as soon as he's got anything deer related skin,feet,heads etc he turns into this horrible blood thirsty little ****er that you don't want to go near.
I took him with me stalking last week in a heavily populated area with fallow,walking on the lead expecting to be rather bonkers with all the scent ,but he was good as gold,and clearly winded a couple of deer which I was ecstatic with.
Today he did another track around 4hrs old over 400 yards with scent shoes, which have been by far the best purchase to date.
I want to take him off blood eventually but he's coming along well so far,sits outside the lo door when I'm in there,but I have a lot of work to do on the obedience of things.

Ive had an awful lot of advice from the guys on here and I can only hope I do him justice.
