Fantastic pics - you've really got us interested and would love to give my NI a go. Got to get myself fitter first but can't wait to get a rig etc.

Hi love to see the dogs doing what they love best....I would really like crystal and storm to get into pulling sleighs rather than me........not too bad uphills but a bit of a ****** going down while at the same time chasing a ball and then a cat jumping out of knowhere to chase it too, then the two of them chasing both ball and cat......I had to grab hold of a lampost....

You want to get it so that the dogs associate harnesses to pulling, and collars for walking nicely, when out walking start giving the verbal commands gee(right) haw (left) when you go round corners, and Onby for going straight or passing other dogs, if you do go out on a rig its been said that you shouldnt chatter to your dogs whilst they are running, just speak when you give a command and if they follow your command reward by saying "good haw" or whatever it is they have done, rather than good girl, good boy, reason for not chatting is the dogs will switch off to you, and when you give a command, they dont listen as well. Also keep your first runs with the dogs and rig fairly short, so that the dogs finish wanting more, this is also so that you dont overdo it with dogs that have not been exercised or conditioned for pulling you straining themselves which will put them off.
