Home Forums Birds & Dogs Hunting Dogs GSP getting scraped up

My GSP is ending her first season. She's got a long way to go but she has a lot of potential. Not holding her points as well as I would like but retrieving impressively for only being 9 months old. Anyway, the top of her front legs (inside elbows, I guess) are getting pretty torn up from the cover. She's not a very big dog, about 50lbs and 21" at the shoulders. Anybody got any advice for protecting her legs?

isn't it great when your dog's out there doing what you want......and at such a young age......I've never had a problem with leg's getting tore up.....I have a vest for my dog's that help's out in the brush and also in cold weather.....I have never tried these but you might want to check out this site:<p>dog boots<p>Good luck and Happy Hunting.........

Thanks Birddawg. I'm not sure why it happens to her, it doesn't happen to my lab. She wears a vest and that works really well for her chest and stomach but the scrapes are high up on her leg so unfortunately I don't think boots will help.<p>BD
