trialing a pregnant dog

Post by jddingess »

My best dog is starting to come in. She should be ready around the 4 the of March. My question is will it affect her to run her at the world. It would be about three and a half weeks after she's breed. She's a hell of a dog and I want pups out of her but I want to give her every chance to do good out there.

Won't bother her a bit.I run mine in hunts right up until 2 weeks from having the pups.Everything was fine.

I had a female win a 55 dog little pack trial 5 weeks bred a couple of years ago. I tried her once more a couple of weeks later and it was starting to slow her down.

I had one of my best bitches die while running she was due in about two weeks . I had to go out of town to work a few days and it was in july 90's every day. My father inlaw was feeding for me. She got out and ran till she died she ran all night and was still runing the next morning he said he tryed to catch her before he went to work but she would not come to him. He found her dead that afternoon when he went to feed. I always figured she just ran her self to death. She was a no quit dog as good as I have ever seen. A grade dog from breeding I never new anything about . A little exercise is great but be sure they don't over do because some of them don't know when to quit !
