Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Christ we've gone from 15 months, to 2 years and now it's 3 years. Any advances on 3 years? Anyone reckon 4 years? Lol only kidding mate. I'm sure you're right I've a bull/grey X wheaten/grey here that I'm sure will be the best dog ever. Just to make sure I won't be running him on anything other than a tennis ball till he's at least 5... I think I might have been a bit hasty with my old running dog ! I'm out later with the spade to dig her up , her best years are still to come ..? Lol that's funny ? Quote Link to post

Over exertion can not only cause physical but also mental damage. Pups should do no more than play run. Being pushed to over exert is bad for them. Biggest cause of defeat in a dog is lack of wind.no matter what the quarry. A dog is not capable of being fully fitness trained until it has finished growing inside its body aswell as out. You can ruin a good un. It happens all the time. i think you read to much mate, things aint black and white , exertion , like when kids come in from being out side all day and fall straight to sleep, twins ,ones sat on his fat ass on a computer all day the other helping out on the farm from a young age ,would there be a difference. as iv said before your whole body adjusts to what you do when your young , it most be right because when i was young i could never get a girl friend and iv always been none as a wanker to mates Perhaps you should read more,and then you might learn to make a bit more sense when you write. Things are fairly black and white with rearing pups. Just like kids they need freedom to gallop,play and sleep,preferably in the warmer months for pups.If you do not have room at home to provide that then you need to take them out into fields everyday to stretch. What they do not need and should not have is over exertion. That is to say too much. Simple...for most anyway. btw an Ass is a donkey. I think you mean Arse! your right i can't read and write very good,but i wouldnt lead anyone down the garden path, your wrong there right, get yourself a pup take it out from 8 weeks then come back in 2 years, until then what you say is not worth a light , trigger knows a lot of people off this sight , since the shit it the fan most have gone to ground but theres one or two who are standing by him, those i will take my hat off to Ive got a few from 10 weeks to 7 years old here.Thats howI never need to rush pups or injured dogs back,Ive always got another round the back.
