Aye fella I take it you walk them every day, I would hardly call it graft..   If thats the case mine work everyday of the year sometimes twice a day.. :laugh:   If you run your dog on 40 odd rab

a heavy lurcher needs walked and ran plenty of lead work and loose running. chaseing a ball is ideal as is running a lure. i find three or four miles a day plus off lead stuff for ten /fifteen minutes

3 mile roadwork and then a good hours free running/hunting about daily should see a heavy dog soon start to get in shape...then in season a few nights lamping mixed in should have a fit and healthy do

C'mon lads !! Lets have some more soul bearing !!LOL !! Who else works their dogs all year round ???? :whistling:

 

Cheers.

I don,t feel the need to overwork the land,why make inroads into unworthy quarry that will be a better days sport later on,especially when it grows to a size that may better challenge the dogs.Ive plenty to do at this time of year,the dogs can still be kept physically fit with a few leisurely walks and swims.I find the dogs are physically and mentally so much fresher come late autumn,due to a break,less chance of picking up knocks and bangs and a chance to recover from an arduous season.
