Just when it felt like we were getting into a groove!

Unseasonably high temperatures and loads of rain! If I'm completely honest, running this week doesn't look great. High humidity really does a number on a dog's ability to cool themselves down.

I will still wait until the morning of for cancellations, just in case things change drastically. It's happened before.

The only nice running day predicted this week I'll be stuck in the van driving down to our only planned dryland race of the season! Fingers crossed for some better running weather when we return on Nov 10th!

S**a is working hard to get into race dog shape!

Wednesdays are my day to train specifically for races. Ensuring that these dogs have the proper conditioning for race distances and speeds is an important part of injury prevention. At the moment we are combining fast runs on the bike (3-5km) with slower longer team runs with breaks (6+ km).

Despite a few breaks, running through a giant puddle (3 times), and the temps not getting over 5 degrees, you can see how the activity can still make a pup pretty toasty!

When not running, you're likely to find me at the shelter or out and about with the dogs there. This Saturday we'd love to see you out! Come support a great cause or show off your costume. Bring your pup if they're the type that enjoys busy spaces, bonus if they have a costume to show off too!

Overall it was a success - just watch out squirrels, we WILL go off trail to chase you 🐿️

Friday morning bikejors!

Three of the five teams we ran. Why don't I have video of the others? That's a very good question 😊. I blame Friday brain.

Awooooo!

No big deal.

Just another lab who's down to sled 😁

Oscar got a first run today, and to say he's a natural is a bit of an understatement. I'm excited to see how he does this winter ❄️

He's a lucky dude too! A spot just happened to open up in our "West of the river" pickups for Mondays. Welcome aboard Oscar!

When does breed matter?

I usually say breed doesn't matter. Mostly that's so that the non typical breeds for dog powered sports don't miss out on an opportunity to try something new!

But breed does matter. Never assume that you will be able to train out some of the core behaviors that make up working breeds. Good training can do a lot, don't get me wrong.

Sometimes a dog needs to do the things it was bred for to feel truly satisfied. Blaze is a border collie. He loves sledding and running. He's a leader and picked up his commands in no time. Class act all around.

We started to see that Blaze was hesitant to come out running. But get him out and hooked up and he would be jumping, barking and excited to go.

Because Blaze is a good boy, and has been a client forever, I decided to let him run beside teams sometimes.

He loves sledding.

But he loves barking his fool head off telling the entire team how fast to run and which direction to run WAYYYYY more.

He's a border collie.

We are apparently his sheep 🐑. He is happy. I need to remember to bring my earplugs.
