How much

[fatlad 250]

It's my spaniels first season ive got 4 days beating this week is this too much for her I'm thinking of leaving her home at least one day out of the 4 she was spot on today I'm out tomorrow was thinking about leaving her tomorrow she is my first gundog and I really don't want to mess things up with her how often should she be out in her first season or is it a case the more the better

Go until you can see her slowing down if she’s tiering then lead her up some don’t slow down bitch I had would go all day get home and writhing half hour bouncing up and down to go again .

She doesn't really tire she works woods and bracken ok always get her on a lead near game crop until I have a bit more confidence in her not to run in just spoke to the keeper he said he has a kennel spare if I think she is tiring will see how she goes tomorrow

Depends as well if your beating or picking up or are you doing both can make a difference as a dog doing both beating and picking up especially if drive after drive n flighting as well are being put under the cosh a lot more than someone who has multiple dogs n swap n change dogs between drives or days but as long as you maintain them well then they should be fine both mine are out 4 times a week n manage ok but look after em n plough the grub into them, just picking up for excample you you can get away with a lot more jmo, as for a first season dog I wouldn't be doing anywhere near that much, good to hear she's doin well n ope you both have a good season..
