Just looking for Advice

[Stewy 1]

Two weeks ago i covered my Bitch with a friends dog, she looks to be showing already.

My question is this, should i keep walking her twice a day or should i completely rest her up????

 

The reason being she is a very active dog (Bull cross) and she keeps running and turning and jumping gates.

Don't want to do any damage. Any Advice???

id say still take her a walk but try and keep her calm if you cant keep her on the lead nice steady walks should be fine atb with the pups mate turbotyke

Should have mentioned i walked her with another dog, she doesn't like her running around while she's on the lead.

I'll have to walk her on her own too perhaps.

When i picked up my lurcher pup the breeder told me the his dam had caught a rabbit only a week before she dropped!

terrier and hound man meself but they`ll hunt till a week before, within reason, think your bitch will know when to calm down,obviously the long dog men know best but 2 weeks is only just.?

Pregnancy is not an illness. Normal walks/excercise should be fine until the bitch starts showing signs of discomfort(usually around the 6 to 7 weks mark). After that just light excercise should suffice. atb stabba

i would not risk it but its up to you she will be ok for a few weeks but if i was you i would take her walks on her own just incase they knock into each other ect i would not work a pregnant dog just my opinion turbo tyke

stewy the advice stabba gave you is spot on but don't run her on anything too heavy,a real good kick in the gut could cause major problems,take her steady and use your head,yis,wirralman

Thanks mate.

I just plan on walking her twice a day, because she is crazy, she doesn't know when to stop. She ran into a container on a football field after a rabbit a few weeks back.

I have other dogs there to keep me habit fed while she needs the time off.Shes me favorite.

I run my bitches up til about a week or so before they have the pups. They wont kill themselves anyhow. Once they start gettin heavy they will slow down on their style a bunch but its still good for their heart and lungs and probably real good for the pups inside also.
