They typically cover 25 miles per hunt on the garmin, and have yet to show any signs of being too hot. Even in 90+ temps and mile+ races.
Not trying to sound like a hater, but I suspect that the Garmin is not getting reset everytime you open the dog box door. I would tend to think that may include some travel distance while they are in the truck. I've been wrong before though. I won't lie, my dogs could not go 25 miles full out in the temps we're having now. There would be some form of damage that was visible to me if they tried it. I'm sure of that.
Ive got one 1/2 Plott 1/2 YBM that will put 25 miles minimum any nite you drop him out! so I dont doubt it a bit
