What does the bitch wear?

You might aswell put a baraclava on the dog when out lamping. My old lurcher use to carry a penknive under her collar lol.

Know a lad who applies that realtree nail varnish before he runs his bitch

I see a dog taped up once from the ankle to the knee IMO it affected the way it run I wouldn't do it there's no way of telling if the tape is to tight and affecting circulation IMO of course but I could be wrong I'm sure someone will have more experience on the matter

Not taping up as such but have used and seen lads use sections of cycle inner tube 1/2" thick,

you put it over two toes when greyhounds are coming back from having split a web.

Stops the toes spreading so supporting the web and the ones I seen run it didn't

effect their performance.

I know it's not the same thing but I know you can get boots for working dogs in Australia. They wear them for two main reasons: resistance from hot roads and thorns on plants like bindi.

 

I've just had a quick check online (to make sure I wasn't having a senior moment and imagining it) and you can even get ones with vibram soles!
