my dogs get 2 hours a mooching most days, if i cant make it, 2, its deffo an hour of free running an hunting up the hedges...

in winter if i dont mooch the dogs i ferret them......

i roadwalk my dogs for 3/5 miles, but must admit i have just started doing this....

i swim my dogs daily for between 15/30 mins in the swim tank an will up that time just before i start lamping seriously..

 

i then trott my dogs behind the quad bike at nite, across the local fields, unless im out lamping..... an my lamping trips usually get harder an longer as the winter progresses..

 

 

 

 

 

not a lot a people have mentioned rest tho, an rest is a seriously important factor of fitness, along with top notch food :thumbs:

Depends on the parks I suppose, I hardly have the dugs on the lead and they get to run aboot daft, touch wood I haven,t had any knocked up toes etc because of hard ground during the summer :thumbs:

i believe it does because they have to get right down to the ground, it decreaces the amount of over run the dog has

 

and i find that dogs that do alot of mooching do hunt up on the lamp

dogs aint daft, i cannae speak for others, but i can speak for mine, an the dogs my mates own, that i see often.....

 

 

 

an if a dog cannae tell the diffrence between mooching during day, an lamping at night, then imo, ye aint showing the dog enuff graft..........

 

or its a shite dog........

just what ive found dotty, but then down here theres alot of bunnies on most fields and there about all you can mooch for and i try not to run my dogs on rabbits if i can help it.

 

as for graft my dogs get plenty of it on a regular bases.

Firstly why no fling a baw if you think it makes a difference ? however a baw/lead whatever doesn,t jink like a bunny :no:

 

secondly and i really can,t be bothered but when you introduce the dug to the lamp when it trys to hunt up after a slip use recall :hmm: don,t worry if you scare all the bunnys in that field away, the initial few trips out are all important, get recall spot on,

a dog with half a brain will soon learn when to keep its head up or nose down depending on the situation :thumbs:

no it doesnt jink like a bunny butstays in an exact spot and if they wanna pick it up before the other dog then they have to get it on the outrun

 

my dogs return after each and every slip straight away but i was always taught that daytime teaches lamp dogs bad habbits and my mate is seeing that problem atm with his dog.
