i want to know if anyone has done it whilst pregnant?? the riding and the dog aren't an issue she is pretty well behaved just wondering if i'd be allowed

Whose prego you or the dog?????? :o if you are depends how far you are, gees I was splitting wood, riding horses till about 3 weeks before I had my daughter :laugh: but thats what happends when you lived in the bush. It would probably help doing exercise, makes the birth easier, sorry guys a little off the subject

For the dogs sake it helps tooooo we worked our girls till the day they dropped with no probs at all :rofl:

me lol and would be 8 months. i was riding horses at 41 and a half weeks last pregnancy lol and still working and carrying 15 kgs crates around :rofl:

Hi Emery, just read through the Rules/Regulations of Et from ANKC, there is nothing about what sort of bike you ride :thumbsup: as long as you have a helmet, it looks more at the dog procedure of doe's & dont's

well if your riding horses at 41 weeks you could romp this in :thumbsup: good luck

Hi Abbiestar,

We have entered Jag in the Dalmatian test and are now 4 days into training schedule. Early days but all going beautifully so far :thumbsup: I believe there are several Rottis doing this test, so it should be a nice social get together for all of us. Probably be more Rottis than Dallys... I think there was last year also. :thumbsup:

Hope everyone else is going well with training etc. Have fun.

Wow I will have to do this with my dog when he's old enough. We currently do 15km at least 3 times a week at an average speed of 20-25km, would be awesome to have a title for it. I have to keep riding further and faster to tire him out, he's getting ridiculously fit...

One thing though, if he's not on the limited or full register can he still get a title? He's just a mixed bred doberman.

Hi,

DogsSA will get your dog registered, and it may also be an idea to talk to the German Shepherd Club of SA. They run the ET in Adelaide. Jenny DeLucia is the contact person. [email protected]

Hi dyzney,

good for you for entering! Not sure who is judging there this year, but the course is nice and flat. Hope you have a great day and have success too.

Took Ruby for a 3.5km bike ride yesterday, it's all we can manage at the moment so I think I'll be putting the ET off until next year :o

She starts off with her head in line with the front wheel, half way through she is gaiting nicely next to the bike, then the last km she was lagging a bit. Need to build up her endurance and fitness!

We managed to ignore 2 small breeds as we passed, then we passed a Lab or Lab X and it showed interest in her so it was on! :eek: I had already gotten off the bike to ensure I didn't fall off, but as they pulled to each other my chain came off my bike! Never put a chain back on a bike before, first time for everything :thumbsup: Got back on and away we went! Might go again this arvo :) I don't get much opportunity to do this as riding around my own neighbourhood is not an option, too many offlead dogs and morons. Need to do it when I visit my parents :o

Well the Diva's training today was an hour of swimming as the weather was gorgeous at the beach today. I enjoyed the swim as well.

However, I think the beach days will be few and far between now :cry: with winter coming on.
