I let me young pups run around the house and farm when they are younger and they will occasionally come back with a rabbit. I like to let them roam for a while to get them used to using their noses and learn how to navigate the country a little faster but I have had a few I have had to break off rabbits when they are a little older. Trash is trash so if you don't want them running rabbits then take the appropriate steps to break them; or, sell them to a rabbit hunter! :wink:

ha ha ya i have a buddy that his bluetick will chase rabbits every now and then but mine actually catches them surprised me ha ha but he is real smart and real easy to trash break took him one shock and one buzz to keep him off deer now i just beep him with the shock collar and he knows but the rabbits are pretty fun and he is 8 months old but he is a fire ball dont care what he smells he chases it the hard part is if he is of the box and tralin cause he is silent on track till he sees it or is treed
