.... and the dogs can't wait. The first week of training went well, but the dogs are hard-wired to work, and it was really noisy and tough to get the job done without bursting ear drums. They have had the summer off, and now run about 9km a day, pulling a quad bike at slow speed to build muscle and get into shape for 5-day trips with tourists later in the season. As we found out, the quad bike is too light - 12 dogs can haul the thing with brakes fully on. Makes for exciting training runs!...to ask them to STOP is not really an option at this stage of training. Run, run, run, run, run harder, run harder is their default! ;)
