chartpolski 23,605 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Saw frost on a bit of ground in Northumberland this morning !! To answer your question; yes I would, and have in the past... but it's up to the owner where they run their dogs ! Cheers. Quote Link to post
beast 1,884 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 depends on the ground. a bit of frost on ground with good amounts of grass, or in woods, has never caused my dogs problems. but plough or drill or say winter wheat froze hard can be murder 2 Quote Link to post

TOMO 26,182 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 What beast said,, that wheat can be a f****r,,, little bobbly bits that are just waiting for a toe to "jump" or a nail to rip off,,, get on those lush cow pastures or any thik grass park,, and there's more protection for toes ,feet, and wrists 4 Quote Link to post

Giro 2,648 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I dont run on frost best waiting for it to thaw.. Waiting for a knocked toe to come right is generally much longer 1 Quote Link to post
nothernlite 18,088 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 got a bit of permission the fields run down to the sea which is good when everywhere else is frosty Quote Link to post

Waiting for a knocked toe to come right is generally much longer Steve; if we don't "summer hunt", and don't hunt when theres a "moon", don't run on a frost, and only wait for the perfect night...... when do we take our dogs out ???
