derbylad1 293 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 When you say run, do you mean lamping or just a free running when out mooching. You can run them, but each bitch reacts differently when in season. Quote Link to post

birddog 1,354 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 bitches build up layers of fat particularily around the heart when they come into season in preparation for pregnancy running a bitch in season can cause all sorts of problems, greyhounds are not allowed to race for i think 13 weeks from 'breaking', i wouldn't run a bitch after rabbits or any other prey for that matter 'in season'. i keep mines in trim stepping up the roadwork and monitoring food intake closely, this way they come back quicker and fitter. this is just the way i was taught and it's stood me well over the years 3 Quote Link to post
