MEG 52 Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 i never run dog while in season. read something about the hormone changes can do damage to muscle tissue Quote Link to post
skycat 6,173 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Running a bitch in season is OK as far as it goes, though I wouldn't over do it. It's after the season when you need to be careful. A lot of bitches lose condition due to their hormones: their muscles, tendons and ligaments all slacken and soften as though they were expecting a litter of pups. My bitches would be physically incapable of catching a hare (before the ban) as their conditon is just too soft. Plus trying to run in that state can really damage them badly: the time when they tear their muscles the easiest. The real danger time is from 5 weeks after the season to when the pups (if they had had them) are about 4 weeks old: figure it out. The odd run on a rabbit or two is not a problem, it is the prolonged running on hares that can really cause the damage. Hope this helps. Quote Link to post
