WGD Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Possibly too fit, sometimes too much exercise stops them coming in - give her a rest in the close season and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hambone Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Possibly too fit, sometimes too much exercise stops them coming in - give her a rest in the close season and see what happens. This. Sometimes greyhound breeders have the same problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fieldrangerdogs Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Not directly related but we just mated two bitches who were both a couple of months past their season due dates, as was a third bitch we have. Speaking to a few other people it seems to be a common occurrence this year. Don't know if it is just coincidence or if something has upset them.

geordieh Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 That is strange I have a 11 month old lab and she hasn't had a season yet either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fieldrangerdogs Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 That shouldn't be a worry for a first season as they can be much older before they start, especially in larger dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
