Hi again - just so you understand that its not the size of him but his bone development/growth - his bones will not be fully developed until at least a year. So before they are he could damage / injure himself if over exercised / puts too much strain on them.

Having thought about it - I probably would leave it til he is a year old.

Live Bluemerle lover says maybe do a few other training exercises.

For agility a good wait is a good idea, directional changes (not essential) and the down for the table! Good attention helps too!
