Sledding Again!

oc_spirit · 12-20-2005, 02:26 PM

These were taken a few days ago. We started out great but then were forced to turn around and come back to where we started because we ran out of snow on the trail! LOL

OC, do you see dad across the field?

Ronan! Quit marking trees!

Coming Through!

I made the boys work hard by putting my feet out to the side to make pulling the sled a lot harder. The boys got so tired at this point they were walking! LOL

OC, what a cool thing to be able to do with your dog!

bigdoglover · 12-20-2005, 03:04 PM

Awsome pics! I envy you a little, but it still doesn't make me like snow!! LOL

calgal · 12-20-2005, 05:17 PM

It still looks like a lot of fun and I think the hot cocoa would taste much better after that then it would me walking my dogs in 60 degree weather.

Shadowkins · 12-20-2005, 05:45 PM

Looks like alot of fun!!

oc_spirit · 12-24-2005, 06:52 AM

Thanks guys!!!! Y'all should come up here to give it a try sometime

AlaskanKristen · 12-26-2005, 12:08 PM

Great photos! I like the top one with OC looking over at the camera

. Does Ronan have problems with wanting to mark on the trail? Sher is a bit like that too. I envy those people who have their dogs trained to go to the bathroom before a run, lol.

Spike · 12-26-2005, 01:09 PM

I would love to do that! My dog is a border collie/husky mix, so I'm not sure how he would take to that. And he's only 3 months old...

Things to do in the future...Get huskies, get sled. Put the two together and enjoy!

TribalRats · 12-27-2005, 09:22 AM

Wonderful action shots OC!

tommyjake · 12-27-2005, 02:30 PM

APBTlover · 12-27-2005, 04:40 PM

You guys are too nice

Kristen, I actually don't thankfully, he only does it if we're going slower than a trot which we were there cause we had to cross a bare patch of gravel. He gets too focused in running to remember about marking LOL Both dogs know the command "Go pee" so I always take them for a short walk and keep repeating that command in order to empty them before we run.

Spike, you might actually get a very good runner out of your pup! Border Collies do remarkably well in harness! Make sure you use proper harness though don't just use a walking harness from any old pet store

Mom2Many · 01-02-2006, 04:39 PM

Now that's the way to ride! Great pics!

IceyBlueSibes · 01-04-2006, 08:24 AM

Ren, I need to make a trip up there sometime and bring the girls and you can help me teach them to sled!

oc_spirit · 01-04-2006, 04:07 PM

Thanks guys!

Ya for sure Sarah! You guys are welcome here anytime! I'm sure it;d be a blast!
