My dogs get walked in the morning for a mile, then in the evening they let rip in the field (No quarry to catch in there) they run and play for around an hour whilst i sit and have a fag.
Then it's back to the kennels for a feed and a drink, then an hour on the sofa having some fuss and playfighting. Then back into the kennels for the night.
The dogs walk into the kennels by their own, and see it as a happy place, so they are quite content. As for working, my 2 main dogs are out on the lamp once a week for a couple of hours at a time. My main bitch is now expecting her first litter so
