NOOK/ANNA 96 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I know that greyhound trainers inject can inject their bitches to stop them coming in to season. But i was wondering if anyone knew if theres anything that can be done to bring a bitch in to season? I know that if you kennel a bitch up with another in season that that would work. But i don't know of any in my area. So was wondering of anything else that can be done? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NOOK/ANNA 96 Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Not being funny but.... why on earth would you want too? My big dog was in an accident and has lost the use of his right front leg. He's the best dog ive ever owned and have just got a greyhound bitch to put em over before he's pts. Ive spent over £2000 trying to save the use of the leg to no luck. That he only has the use off 3! And i would never keep him unless he could walk or run to his fullest because he loves it so much an it wouldnt be fair on him. So wan't to try get a pup to carry on his line before im forced to do this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Saw a 3 legged lurcher earlier today whilst out with one of my dogs and he was getting about fine (front left leg missing) and still pretty agile and running. Bloody shame to put yours down if it can still get about on 3 legs. Edited September 10, 2009 by kiz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kay 3,709 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 There was a you tube video on here about 3 yrs ago showing a lurcher running about on 2 legs , yes 2 legs pretty amazing Both my dogs ran for a living , they dont seem to miss it , quite happy chilling out on the sofa Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest chook Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Dogs can do perfictly well on 3 legs, why on earth would you want to pts, they can still run - jump and do most stuff dogs with 4 legs do, just because it might not be able to do the job you want it to do, dosent mean it should have its life ended. Not being funny but why do people think pts is the only option for dogs workers or not, if its on vettenary advice then yes go a head, but why not give the dogs at least the chance of finding a loving home, dosent matter if its a working home or not, the dog will still be happy, i know lots of x working dogs, that never miss there old lives, mine included.

NOOK/ANNA 96 Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 Listen ive had this dog from 6weeks old and he's 4 now. An have loved him every day since i got him. I lamp 3 times a week an if i go out without him he cries the neighbour hood down. He was born an bred for hunting an that what he loves doing. An at 75lb+ in weight he's a big powerful dog to be given to sumone as a pet. So if you don't have anything constructive to say then don't. Do you not think ive lost enough nights sleep thinking it over! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do you not think ive lost enough nights sleep thinking it over! My dogs - cry the house down if i leave some of them behind, ive had most of them from being born, most dogs will cry if left behind thats nothing new, yes a 75lb dog can and would live as a pet, and yes someone other than you could handle and give that dog a good life, if i can handle walking 4 dogs at a time combined weight over 100lb's, my deerhound bitch is about 80lbs, and handle looking after 10 dogs, then i am sure your dog could go on to live a fantastic life as a pet with an experanced owner, dogs dont live to hunt, they hunt to survive, its breed in to them - the only resion most dogs cry when there owners go out with out them is because they want to be with there owners, yes dogs do love chaseing things, even dogs not breed to hunt, but take that away they wont miss it, its us that think they will miss it, its us that are putting human thoughts and emotions on to dogs, wake up there dogs not people, dogs adapt to were ever there living, if huntings not included - they adapt to that, you go out 3 times a week, what does your dog do for the rest of the time, is he crying because he's not being taken out lamping, probably not, is he missing it - more than likily not, so whats to say if he was in a pet only home, that he would go crazy because he's not being taken out lamping, again its all down to us putting human feelings on to dogs. FYI i am being constructive, i am trying to make you see sence that just because your dog might not be able to do the job you want him to do, dosent mean he has to loose his life - if you say you love him then why not let him live his life out on someones sofa.

farlap 19 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 in answer to original question....no there is nothing. Gallastop stops phantoms not starts seasons. There is nothing to start. I personally have had a 3 legger and he had a great time and adapted very quickly to a slightly new pace of life. if you still insist on euthanasia you can always have semen collected and frozen, we have done this many times.

Do you not think ive lost enough nights sleep thinking it over! Idont see why you should have to explain your self, If you think you could not get apet home as good, as youve given the dog its your choice.Finding homes is not that simple thats why there are so many dogs in pounds and rescue centres. Iknow the vet can give a bitch thats been mated by accident, a shot that brings her back into heat, hence flushing away the eggs, but dont know if it can or they would give it a bitch to bring her in season.Ask your vet?I would like to know what they say,please. good luck.
