Guest ripstop Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Think this was covered last year, but with it being the end of the season what does everybody do with their dogs, whether it be terriers lurchers? ie diet, excercise/conditioning - as stated on another post about some letting their dogs ly in a kennel all summer and then expecting them to work full pelt come next season. Including changing protein levels/carb levels etc. road work, agility, training, bringing pups on etc. I think any newcomers would welcome some good honest advice as what to do and how to go about it, as to get the best out of their workers. Its a lot of trial and error, but being put on the right path would definately benefit, instead of picking a book up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ripstop Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Have to agree there Scent. Ive already started cutting my protein down, though still got the dogs out at least once a day. Am taking 2 of the terriers out once for a bit of a run about. The two lurcher pups are going out with my bushing terrier either early morning or later in the day a couple of times a week to try and flush a few rabbits. And some obidience for the lurcher pups, a few time a week. And inbetween will be learning to drive for some good new permission ive aquired. Then later on in the year theyll be hitting the myxi a bit but not too much Quote Link to post Share on other sites
