How Fast..

[weasellurcher 113]

How many hours mooching and hunting aday do you do with the ten mile...? I do a far bit on the bike ,not so much now the weather's here but I couldn't do that much aday plus the mooching .be abit much for mine day in day out

Fairly he's messing. But my point stands that if someone wanted to do it they could! Lol

[tb25 4,627]

I think ten mile is easy done with a fit dog..but add the mooching or how ever you chose to hunt that's alot .surley the dog needs rest from the bike...talking a small dog here.18 odd tts.

[weasellurcher 113]

Your right, wouldn't fit it all in.

[tb25 4,627]

If you didn't work you could...but 7 days a week.ten mile a day plus ya hunting...18 odd tts dog..f**k me ad be f****d never mind my bitchers lol

my mooching is when I'm on me bike..i don't lamp/or go out with a specific meaning..i'm coming up sixty two..[me legs are not made for a lot of walking anymore].lol...I don't live in town,,I live on the coast and two minuites from the marshes/and farm tracks that go for miles.so on me bike and off we go..don't think many on here realise that you soon knock up some miles on a pushbike.and here's another for ya,,gotta pushbike that's done at least 25/30000 miles on her,,low estimate.. more than me car..lol.....any way believe what you want..

My Airedale lurchers have biked 10 miles without even tiring, and that's being reasonably fit but nothing out of the ordinary. That is at a non stop trotting pace, and they're pulling most of the way. This is up and down hill as well; on a bike track round Grafham Water. On the flat, not pushed for time, 10 miles would be nothing to a fit dog, no matter what size it is. Even a terrier could do that without a problem if youngish and fit.

thanks skycat..

it amazies me that some people allus want to dought others..as for 37mph,i just wanted to know what speeds others had noted if any.oh and I don't run the dog in heat of the day.early morning,and in about two/three hours time............

when there's a bit of scent about.lol.....

How is the dog bred to clock 37mph. A lot of people have whitnessed bedlington x whippet struggling for pace on rabbits, but at 37 mph they wouldn't struggle on hare

[byron 1,189]

3/4 bred x half bred,,i live on the flat lands mate..no bunnies here,,but lots of there bigger cousins like i say i don't go looking.[i'm a moocher at heart.lol] i bought the pup at roughly six weeks old,and he was out next day in a carrier box on front of pushbike's handlebars..[was running my alsation then]29mph..lol..then as he grew he came out his bike box more and more..fed him chicken wings as many as he would eat.plus his other feed etc.he even sleeps with me.lol.....true..i ain't bothered what others think.he's with me twenty four seven.my best mate haha he makes me smile.oh,and he can jump from standing over five feet onto a flat top electricity box thingy.were i have one of my fag breaks.you read on here about dogs not fast enough etc,,but sometimes people should look at themselves with the fitness levels they put there dogs in.he's laid her next to me now waiting for the off..just a little 5/6 miler tnite..oh and check out Fuji's little pomeranium,,that one covers some miles,up and down dale....

Always had running dogs aboot me, greyhounds and lurchers. Was walking them through ma village

years ago when a man stopped me and asked what speed the dogs could run at, I told him I had no

idea and asked why. "Oh" he said, "I had my dalmation running alongside the car yesterday and he

was doing 44mph". So yer wee whippet cross has tae find another gear.

easily do-able.took mine biking for the 1st time last month along a cycle path.done 7 miles with them and i think they bloody enjoyed it.done it again 2 days later and a couple of times since.must buy road tyres though.
