It's not a sled harness just a house hold dog harness.

Same idea...kind of lol.

I know... But I can't order a harness if we sell him. Lol

I didn't feel like taking a pic of ours. Srry I'm still not feeling well. And we don't need sick puppies.
Our harness is red.

The only reason is to get them used to the feel of something on them other than a collar

I know. I put it on him, then put the leash on it and to him go go go and he took off like a bullet. Haha, it was so cute!
I want to say he's a natural but I feel like I can't say that. Since I've never had a team.

Thanks for the link.

Gather facts prices and everything you need to know. Copy down websites. Then give it to you parents sit down and talk with them. Don't start getting mad or mouthy. It just makes the dession faster( it will always be a NO) I did this kinda and my parents are more for it. Just got to get over outside dogs. Dads ok, mom hates the idea. Hank is not sold, the buyer backed out. I sadly can't mess with him today or for a while. I have become I'll. nothing much but, I don't want to risky the puppies. You know what would make my day, or Christmas, if my parents let me keep 1-2puppies!! We have 2-3 unsold. Hank Bull Dozer and I believe Pyro. I took Hank outside yesterday to go potty. I put a harness and collar on him, I attached a leash to his harness, making him drag it. It went well. Next week I plan to attach something a little heave only like 1-2lbs to the leash. That way he feels the weight.

I'm gonna do that.

IF all else fails. you can make each dog its own yard

Basically they're saying if the dog isn't loose it's whole life, it doesn't have a nice life. A good idea, though. I'm going to ask them about it.

Ask them what set up they'd allow. How many dogs do you want?

They would only allow them to be loose. I'd be happy with even 1 dog. Though, I would want 16. (Which will NEVER happen while I'm living with them) That way I'd have a team of 12 with 4 extras (either older dogs for training pups, pups in training, or pregnant dogs). But for now, I'm okay with 6.

Do they know that if a husky is not penned or chained, they will run away and either get shot, hit by a cat, or killed by an animal?
