WP this morning

We had WP training this morning and it was great fun... A lot of people showed up, and the weather was actually nice (believe it or not!). Half the group took their dogs (with chains) on a walk while the other half stayed on the track. I had just walked Jay in the area before training started, so we stayed on the track instead. After a few laps with a chain, it was time to start pulling the cart. Since the other group was still out and about, the 4 of us who had stayed, our dogs got a chance to pull several times. Jayness did really good! Well except for that he has started having problems standing still the few seconds between getting him hooked to the cart and while I get in to position. He almost spins around, so I have to keep re-setting him. I don't know what that is all about, but hopefully it will go away on it's own as he gets more and more experienced. Other than that, the boy can pull. While most dogs pull slowly (i.e. walk) James pulls fast (i.e. runs almost). Everything has to go fast when it comes to Mr. Jesse James. :)

I can tell all the training (WP, obedience etc.) has paid off when it comes to his whining. It has become soooo much better! :) Anyhow, a trip to IKEA might be on the schedule... Ciao.

Here's a clip of how WP can look like during winter time.
