A
good stop is essential on a working dog. Not only does it allow you to
control the stock, it also allows you to stop the sled team on a winding
trail before the sled gets pulled into the rock or tree or ravine on
the inside of the curve. Today I was thankful for good stops.
New trail, winding and very pretty. At points I barely had the sled
around one curve when my leaders were going around the next curve. Just
over 3 miles today.
I'm beginning to take a run with no
tangles for granted. I spend more time taking in the snowy woodlands,
hearing the birds, the footfall of the dogs, and the quiet swish of the
sled.
