She's 10 months now, and i know she still needs to take it easy but i need to know what types of training i should be doing and how often.

Need to keep her on lead at times as the setter even at 10 is so fit, she will be lame soon if she keeps trying to keep up with him.
so, i need to know, how much running time/looking for rabbits sounds safe at that age?
For example, she was out for 2 hours thursday late morning playing with him that she got so tired i had to get her to sit in the spring/pool and drink for 5-10 Min's until i thought it was safe for her to be off leash again, then wet straight home in car to let her rest.
He would have ran all day with enough water safely.
Friday night i took her training on lamp for about 1 hour.
This morning, spent the day fishing after about 1 hour walk on salt-marsh again, and maybe a few miles up and down river walking slowly.
She learned to swim after she feel in a safe part of the river though
sorry if any typing errors but im just as tired as her, and she is fast asleep.
Thanks for any constructive advice?
Shes not even caught one yet, though she got mink while fishing, but brought to me fine
Shes learning fast, just missing them by a foot or so at times.
Just a matter of time, or ill end up getting a ferret too.
