    How's everyone's dogs? Mine are getting really antsy. It's cooling off and the cart is greased-up and ready to roll. Yo all, I'm selling a sled with all the lines, hooks, mat, extra QCR plastics, an 8 hole transport unit, 8 doghouses, 8 20ft tether chains, collars, harnesses, dishes...

    Where I live you can actually starve to death eating rabbits. Where I live we need fat and protien..... ....if you're going to be outside as much as I am. Point? you ask. Rabbits are pretty much straight ultra lean protien. They got no fat. They eat like you're feeding your chickens. Let your...

    Wool hen, but maybe snow?!?!

    I live where it gets cold. Like -50*C sometimes. This year so far we've only got to -41*C so not too too bad. Anyways, last year we had a eletricity failure at the least convenient time....of course. I had just invested over $500.00 in chickens turkeys flicks and geese Some were for the table...

    :) Some people say 'true', some say 'honest' when referring to a dog that really does work as opposed to keeping their line just barely snug or worse yet 'prancing' with their tug actually hanging. Rascal, my wheel dog, would trot along with his head down(ya:eek:actually not even looking where...

    Ya, I think what it is,"we humans are so egocentric that we project so very much. It seems we think like,"Because it's easier on me it must be easier on them. "My thought usta be,'heavy loads....necks...skinny harness...hitting trees....= :eek:"OUCH!!!!".'so I put shock cords, stretch tugs and...

    I've actually tried it. It's got a constantly stretchy, bouncy feel. Like instead of pulling 200 lbs steady it's like it goes from 100 - 350lbd then back and forth again & again & again & over & over. Constantly changing as opposed to constant. It is actually tiring. Try it with a wagon and...

    Blue Nice one. I fully appreciate keeping the 'doorway bottom' above the 'floor' to keep the straw in. Yes these are so much easier to clean, they're easy move, waterproof, super cost efficient. The only thing I didn't like about plastic barrel houses; sometimes in real cold weather I would put...

    KDOGG The hook up I've seen for bikejoring is by the steering head. The dog pulls the bike or trike or quad in races. Just like skijoring or canicros. I don't like the idea of bungees though. It seems to tire the dogs somehow. The rear leg structure, yes I've seen that before. I've seen in the...
