Have dogs need know how!

Lads i have two border collie pups and i hope to run them at rabbits.. Need a few clues as to what to do and where to go.. How the bloody hell does a fellow get started with the training. pups are 11 wks old and I'm worried that its already too late to get things going. Was told that collies will continue to learn all there life so i should not worry.. need help with this lads.. TA

First bit of advice: Pass one of those pups onto a like minded friend.

Ye don't know what ye doing? Nothing wrong with that at all. Everyone started without having a clue. But to try and learn yeself, then translate what ye hear to Two Dogs at once? Forget it!

Let a good and interested mate have one. Then compare notes as ye go along. But concentrate - and by god, ye'll have to! - on the one Dog.

I,m starting to see what you mean, the two lead one another one an they wont concentrate.. I really want to hold on to the two though. I,ll try a mate to seee if he'll take one for a month or two. Hard thing to get some one to foster for a while and train aswell
