Fall Training...

Has officially gotten underway!  We've had some pretty nice weather to get started in.  Of course we're looking forward to even cooler temperatures as fall progresses, but we'll take what we can get.  The dogs are extremely happy too.  Our main goals with these early runs is to get our mature leaders back in the swing of things and give all the pups- six in total, who range from a year to a year and a half-time in lead to see who's comfortable up there.  So far we have liked what we've seen and should have a few more leaders ready to drive the team a bit faster down the trail this winter. 
First run on August 9.  Two eight dog teams off the truck.


Teaching the pups to hold the lines out while stopped just might be the most challenging part.
