Americano Blue's musher/mushing chat thread

My friend said I should use Meringue for dog agility. Yes or no?

She's into longboarding and her 7 pound Pomeranian isn't working out XD
Wow! You've been busy!

I don't know what longboarding is butI'll check it out. And yeah...Pomeranian?? They are a spitz ut a bit on the small side for anything much except "ratting" perhaps.... lapdog??

And yes, busy. Life is beautiful.

Awesome! Even once a week and you'd be making some fairly good money. Not a lot but still, $500 is a good sized chunk of money.

How are the pups? There're almost a month old now, right?

I don't think the Pomeranian is really meant for pulling.... A *little* too small....

Pups are getting adventurous but Mommy keeps them well protected. They are 1 month and 5 days, healthy and happy, a bit shy but willing to venture a sniff and a nibble on some fingers or an ear or glove. Pictures coming soon as we get a cpl nice days weather. ooooo, they are CUTE.

By the looks of her she'd probably do good. If I was into that I would checkit out butI aint so....
I'm not sure how, if at all, it would affect her mushing abilities.
But I guess, " nothing ventured nothing gained".... ..but I would ask more mushers tho.. ..you know... more insight.

Wow. I just klikt on the Cabella's link to the right of this screen. That is some killer good mushing wear.
I think I'm gona go to their store in Wpg and check it out. Except of course it'll be men's stuff for me.

:/ Sometimes when you are housebreaking a pet they will associate getting punished with having an accident in the house, which causes them not to. Now, I don't think you should beat Hank, but I'd punish him as his mother would scold him; dogs can't hit, so you shouldn't either. Now yes, sometimes that may be affective but not always safe for the dog. I had a dog once that had bladder problems because when he was punished, he got kicked. So whenever he was happy, he would pee all over you and everything else uncontrollably. I'd scold him by firmly saying no (while you have his attention) and punish him like Nala would. But that's just me. I parent used to do that too if our dogs got into the garbage but it hasn't helped much.

Actually, pink isn't that bad of a color. But mushing isn't about what you look like.

Pups are getting adventurous but Mommy keeps them well protected. They are 1 month and 5 days, healthy and happy, a bit shy but willing to venture a sniff and a nibble on some fingers or an ear or glove. Pictures coming soon as we get a cpl nice days weather.  ooooo, they are CUTE.

Glad to hear they are doing well. Can't wait for pics.

That depends, will she be able to handle that and mushing? As in, will she be able to keep her commands and such straight? And know when it's time to pull and when not to? If you think she could handle that, then I say go for it.
