                                                      Aaron's team                                                     Miami & Memphis "in-step"                                                      

  Our first road-trip for this training season, we had 25 dogs on the truck!!!                             Training at home (Aaron's team)

     
We would love to be able to say that we have Mariah trained as a "loose leader"...however we can't!  This was a hilarious mistake on our part.  We usually tie Mariah up when we run teams, this time we forgot & she took it upon herself to taunt them by running just out of their reach.  Turns out that she was actually a big help, it gave the Star Wars puppies something to focus on--it was one of their first runs.

              Going down the road, Natalie's team                                            A rare & fleeting thing this year...snow!

Practicing head-on passing w/ ATV's.  Two 12 dog teams.               Oh the snow was soooo pretty and nice to run on while it lasted.

These photos were taken while we trained in the National Forest near Bayfield, WI.  It seemed to be the only place that had snow this year--let alone enough to get on a sled with these crazy dogs!  (Yes, it was really cold!)

the following photos were taken after 2 heavy snowfalls at our home.  We were able to get all the dogs out to "play" and we had a lot of fun!
