Keeping Fit

[bornhunterharvey 113]

Well lads took the pup out today at the side of her mother on bike didnt go as bad as i thought it would. Had a little bit a tangle ie pup jumping all over but settled down after i put her in place. Did about six mile with her , back home now feed and watered just settled down in kennel for night now. Does anybody else use a push irion to keep there dogs fit just helps to makesure that your dog 100% fit.Think it helps ya dog from pulling muscles and tendons when working. Think with the bike there using nearly every muscle am i wrong or right lads.

took my 8 month old pup for a 20 minute run beside me the other day, first time i'd had her trotting for an extended period of time and she was absolutely knackered after that.

I wouldn't fancy doing anymore than that, don't think mine will be doing 6 miles for a few months yet, although i do reckon slow steady miles will be of benefit down the line like you say; to condition ligaments/tendons and build up a decent aerobic capacity.

I'm just happy to let mine act like a daft pup for a while yet though, plenty of time to develop her conditioning in the future

Mum looks in great shape, you won't be going wrong if your pup ends up like her
