Yesterday was Ozzy's first time in a harness. He did GREAT!! A couple minor tangles, but he figured out pretty quickly which side of the gangline was his and how to stay there. He didn't seem to be afraid at all of the ATV--lots of my timid dogs hate running on the ATV as it is so noisy.
Ozzy showed no signs of trouble from the exertion--they don't actually do much work this time of year, but he did run full out for 5km. He was dumped by a musher who said he had parvo and would never run. Ozzy is proving her wrong, wrong, wrong!
Running with his buddy, Pacer. Pacer is the solid white dog.
Silly sled dogs.
Bandit and Chase. Bandit has suddenly decided he might like to be a sled dog after all. He's almost eight years old and usually he only likes to come along for the run, he doesn't actually pull. THe last few times I've taken him though, he's been a pulling machine.
And finally, Miss Sleet, who ran in single lead yesterday, and would like everyone to know that she is still the best dog to ever come through this place!
