So I've been hooking Hank up to my bike and working him that way.. He's doing ANAZING!!! Might make a good leader out of him yet,
Nala I've hooked up for light work not even 5 minutes and she's loving it!
Hopefully snow this winter!!

Awesome!! Looking great! Hank sure is big, how much do you think he weighs? Anyways, great job!

Ya eh. You'd think.
Maybe because..... worms.? Change of weather? I can't say for sure. Just an observation.
For sure in the natural world it is winter kill off. But for me winter is a time of health because the bugs(germs/bacteria) are fewer. It seems the cold air kills them.
Re: pix. That'd be nice. I'd like that.
I bought my baby sitters old iPhone 5S so I'm gonna try get some pix of "The Birthday Brood" up soon so y'all can see how your namesakes have progressed.

Pics are on their way, lol. I'd love to see the birthday brood. How old are they now? They'll be two in Feb (?) right?

Gee, I see clear sky here today. . Haven't seen it since last Monday.
I think I would like to go for a ride to pickup the trains cart I bought

It's been pretty rainy here. Thursday/Friday is supposed to clear up though. It puts a damper on the mood when you are soaked as you walk outside and then pretty cold winds... Not fun. :/ Ooh, training cart! I've wanted to make one/buy one to use along with the ATV but haven't found any within my price range... I'd love to see some pics and get some design ideas

...

Perfect weather for training and I come down with a nasty cough that keeps me from staying outside long.   

That's no fun. I just got over a mild cold... Seems like most people get sick around this time of year :/ Get better soon!

Wow he is big... Try to keep it short and fun for Nala. And if you are able to run them both, his excitement might rub off on her and she might enjoy it more. Just a thought

I'll try them together on foot first then hook them to the bike for a quick run tonight and see if it works

They will be 2yrs on Jan/14/2017
It's really, really messy here right now. Been raining for over 2 weeks. My dog yard is sloppier than sloppy. I had just moved them to a drier & cleaner spot for the winter. So once it dries up a bit and I can moe my dogs purely again I will post some pix too.
I paid only a $150.00 for the cart. It's pretty darn rugged/tuff. I need to repair
2 tires on it but other than that it's really workable. I will for sure get some pix up.

Good 1.

Geez! It's still raining here. I ain't really one to complain about Nature but I'm getting kinda tired of this rainy weather.
I just moved the dogs to their winter yard and it's all muddy already. Fall training trails are all wet.
Actually, I saw the sun for about an hour this morn....before the darned clouds flew back over.
I'm even cutting my winter firewood supply in my raincoat! First time in 58 autumns that I'v seen that.

Snow all around me and I got rain.

How's the weather where you guys are?

 

[SternRose]

It's warm again :/ to warm almost. But I've been off my game so I haven't worked the dogs for a week ish now
