morton 5,368 Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Just wondering does anyone bush with a 3 legged dog and if so how do they cope with it. Ive a terrier here now,as honest a bitch as im ever likely to own,she as arthritis in her hip and struggles with one of her legs.She can no longer jump walls and obstacles and needs lifting,she no longer bushes at speed and is a liability in rocks below.In all honesty she is not good enough anymore,its a case of being happy with what a less useful mutt offers,i have others to take up the slack and can live with her and utilise her good points when needed,she,s stilla very handy bitch in earths and will be the source of my next litter. 1 Quote Link to post
