huntingalltheway 2 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 i average about 10 miles a day which is mix of field and road if my legs can handle it i go further but changes day by day. Ive also started taking him for an evening ride on a push bike with him running by my side but this is only when im not lamping. But this has been a gradual process to get to this as hes still young and growing. Quote Link to post

klashnekoff 3 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Dont count miles,, but a good hard walk from about Three Pm till dark, Just have a general mooch,, Sometimes i job with them,, ride a bike along them, or run them along the motor. Quote Link to post
COSH 14 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 run mine behind either the motor, quad or pushbike, every day. Some dogs may not do the whole journey, if at all due to me saving their energy for work that day/night. But on a day off from work, all my dogs (bar retired/pups/injured) will do between 3 and 10 miles running/trotting all year round. Quote Link to post
the lamping ferreter 160 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 i dont walk mine the only time my dog gets exersize is buy lamping and i go every other day for about 10-11mile and then the day i dont go i let em off the chain for half hr or so whilst i eat and that then they go back on Quote Link to post

COSH 14 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I think there is some bullshitin goin on!!!!!! 10-15 mile a day???? nowt for a dog that pal, i bet there in good health. Id would love to be able to have the spare time to walk 15 mile a day with mine, but sadly iv got graft, and so mine get a run behind a vehicle/bike to save time. I used to be beating on the moors 6 days a week from 12 august until early december, the same dogs every day would cover 20+ miles no bother, over very rough terrain, working their socks off. And they could still do more, fit dogs are super athletes. Quote Link to post
Annmarie09 5 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Minimum four hours a day, in the summer and two to three hours a day in the winter, today we were out for five hours, yesterday four hours. That's all off lead so Fly's covering a lot more ground than me! Quote Link to post
