CHeers Heya again guys, my dad still wants a spinger and doesnt want to be leaving a dog in a kennel and run for 7hours, so i said well if you get two dogs then it sort of shortens that time as they will be playing together. Any advice? I will be walking the dog everyday at 4 when i get home from school for at least three miles. Hope fully if i get a dog some catches on the walk!

But i just need to persuade my parents but dad thinks it is to long for a dog to be in a kennel? atb ollie Quote Link to post
matt d 1 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 maybe collie xwhippet xgreyhound or a pure whippet or whippet x bedlington !!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to post
jonathan 0 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 so he is saying you cant have a dog then because what is the diffrents between a springer being left then say a beddy whippet i used to take my two for a run in the morning then one after work most lurchers are in kennels or in side because if not they will be up to all sorts Quote Link to post
mush 204 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 No he ment any dog ? WHat length of times do you leave youres in the kennels?? all the best olliesome of mine are inside, running dogs will lay around all day sleeping, think you would have a hard job getting a springer to do that LOL.

artic 595 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT BREED OR TYPE OF DOG IS LEFT IN THE KENNEL. MOST PEOPLE WITH DOGS DO WORK. THE QUESTION IS: ARE YOU COMMITTED AND RESPONSABLE ENOUGH TO KEEP A DOG? RAIN OR SHINE WALKING THE DOG? VET FEES, YOU WILL BE OWNING A LURCHER.. HOLIDAYS? DO YOU HAVE SOMEONE TO LOOK AFTER HIM/HER WHEN AWAY? COST OF UP KEEPING? IF THE ANSWER IS YES TO ALL OF THE ABOVE THEN I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST WITH YOUR NEW HOUND. Quote Link to post
