on that basis of 16 weeks to get right a 6 monthly bitch would be out of action for 3/4 of the year get real the main reason they are not run on the track is that it would interfere with the dogs on the track, vets will jab a bitch to keep it out of season but she would still physically build up the layer of fat because of the biological clock but they would still be run Edited by desertbred

i would agree with that from start of a season to the end. hormone inbalance and full fittness can be up to roughly 100 days , or thereabouts ;)
