Guest born to run1083 Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 my opinion if they can road walk after a nights lamping then lamping them again at night they carnt be working them that hard surely or there land is naf so dont get the chance to run, lamping days mine is out to empty them self a few times a day then lamped at night.

jacksbignose 8 Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 I've seen dogs that are well (over) muscled from loads of roadwork even during the season and as a result they can barely turn/strike... just my humble opinion but a working dog will be fit enough from the work it's doing and the off-season should be time for your dog to rest (with a bit of light work getting it ready just before 'your' season starts)!

That day it would get a handful or two of meal in morn just take hunger off then just a quick 15-20 walk just to empty out. No road work , free run or gallops at all that day. Quote Link to post

lurchers 2,845 Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 some people work for a living so after work the dog goes for a walk before a nights lamping then when it gets home it gets fed then a days rest,but looking at some posts on here some people have more time on there hands to get the dogs fit for the season.atb Quote Link to post
