Would be best to wait until Millie is fully grown to avoid any irrepairable damage to her joints, when she is about 18 months - 2 years old.

I think it depends on the dog Smile my friends tried it with their lab but he just buggered off chasing other people and they kept having to turn back to go and find him lol! But my friend cycles with her staffie, just have to be really careful with their joints. Biscuit isn't temperamentally sound enough to have off lead, and is more of a moocher than a jogger so wouldn't bother with her!
