Robert morrison 15 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Away bk offshore tommorrow so won't see dog for 2 weeks when I'm home he gets many big walks n some big runs 7-8 mile n loads of jumping ball chasing ect however when I go away the misses will only walk him whenever it suits her she has no time with either baby or work how do u think this will effect dog being out all the time to not getting out all the time he's really fit when I leave then not so much when I return can't wait to get bk from work already lol what u think guys Quote Link to post
Neoleaver 55 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 He's bound to miss the routine mate...but I wouldnt worry, 2 weeks out shouldnt cause any major problems. My dad Gsd's were always a bit mental for a few days when they'd been in kennels while he was on holiday, but soon settled back down again...just have to put a bit of time in when you get back.
