Reuben,

The "too much handling" I speak of occurs before the dogs/pups ever hit the woods.

Lots of people can't stand having cute little puppies around without wanting to continually mess with them.  I don't see cute little puppies...I see future jam-up hunting dogs.

If you prefer shorter range hunting dogs and like them to stay somewhat near, I don't think it makes so much difference.
