running duration


Recommended Posts

how long can a healthy lurcher run flat out for? Mine is 5.5 yrs medium sized and very fit. Going to time her on her next run. I know cheeters have to stop after so long because of their heart. Anyone had a dog die from over running?

just trying to judge how fit she could be. Two minutes is very good she gives up on cwd after about 1minute and they carry on for two field before stopping incredable endurance.

i suppose it depends on the breed, a canny sized whippet in good condition could run for a minute and a half, a greyhound can usually run about 800m flat out, salukis have been known to run something like 15 mile at a high speed, so it depends on the dog and if it is from working stock etc.
