bull x diet

[jamie1985 6]

I've got a bull wheaten grey.he is coming up 10 months now. I'm running him in the morning for two hours cycling and he gets an hour in evening. Plus all day at work on the farm. I'm feeding him on vitalin, pet mince, raw chicken carcass and marrow bones from the farm butchery. So he has a variety through the week.

What do others feed there's? And what's other people's exercise routines to get them fit for the season? Do I need too do more? Would put a pic up but only got a smart phone no pc.

I think your not doing bad at all with your pup

3 hours running and mooching about on the farm all day i would say thats plenty exercise !

Would say that's a lot of exercise for a 10 month old, but that's just me.

As blackstaff said it's abit early to hammer the fitness into it yet as he's at an important age regarding joints and so on, but if he was older i'd tell you only you can say how fit your mutts need to be as your the guy putting the game infront of them my needs will probly be different to your so to speak.

He ist really working yet had a few times out on the lamp. Just more of a jau.nt than working bit had a few runs and done me proud so far. Still can't upload pics tho. When he is at work wwith us it's more of a play time for him than training I guess he loves bounding over bales.

Good comments above, but with any heavy breed need to watch they don`t get too much, what i call heavy exercise out with the bike etc, as the dogs growth plates may not have finished closing over you could do some damage for later on that cant be put right, mooching round the farm is one thing but too much sustained hard running is not so good. My 10mnth old bull/fell/grey is getting similar exercise to your minus the bike work, hes fit as f**k, but i would like to give him another 5-6mnths before hammering him! It is hard coz hes keen to do more, just my experience

[jamie1985 6]

Okay I will cut down on the cycling. Just seems no matter how much he gets he is always keen for more!

Well you might as well give him nowt, then you won't have to pick any up.

danny he looks healthy and by all acounts pretty much close to fitness peak ,but on the excess stools he may be better on a more natural diet just a thought . atb bunnys.
