    Great tutorial. I'm trying those commands with our English Setter that we rescued and he loves it.We do it on dry land so no sled required.Our commands are : Walk, Run (really a trot), Ha, Gee, Wait (stop and wait).He seems to really enjoy the commands and change of pace, with us working together!

      Anyway, I am dying to talk with others in our same position of learning to dryland mush. Got a kick bike to start with, brakes (matt black yumm), got the urban harnesses from Alpine in Bend Oregon, 25 miles from where we live and the fishing pole rod/bungee cords. Gotta get X back harnesses later. Please let me know how you are doing?! Please? Put both of them on a toboggan type sled this last winter and for about 500 yards tried the best I could to sit upright but wow. On the bike we've gone farther but my hubby pooped out running beside the dog, holding the other one on a leash. Confusion massive. These boys are so STRONG! So handsome!! Massive chocolate labs with a curled husky like tail they got from their blue heeler dad. Jack and Zip. Stay in touch Sammy Sours.

    Could you help me ?
    Every day I walk my dog in the morning (7:30 am) fasting for 50 minutes - 1 hour. I started researching and saw that exercise (run in this case) is critical to having a balanced, happy dog and establishing a stronger relationship with the owner.
    Googling, I just turned up your channel and I learned a lot.
    I have some questions, could you help me? I would be extremely grateful.
    1-I only give ration to my dog twice a day. Continuing with this fasting morning routine, how long after the run should I feed him?
    2-Can I run with him every day or he has to rest some day?
    3-Have you ever experienced a situation where your dog does not wish to feed on ration food? what should i do?
    Put the ration for a few minutes and then remove and only give the next meal??
    Thanks a lot for your attention.

      Stormy Sampson Shiloh did really well. My scooter is a sit down scooter with brakes. I haven’t run Shiloh for a long time now. He had one mishap, no one was hurt, but his harness broke in one place, a plastic piece. I really haven’t run him since. We mostly hike now. I might try him again now that it’s getting warmer so we can’t hike. But we could scooter in the mornings or evenings.

    • @stormysampson1257

      @@StarBright1976 How 'trained' was Shiloh before you hooked him up to pull? Our boys have learned how to NOT pull until they decide to take off and drag us (including hubby) face down in the trail. I've trained (my dog) Jack to heel and then 'lead on' without dragging me through the dirt, pine needles and brush; he understands Ghee and Haw and (whoa I can't spell the word I use, have used with my horses...Hauyut! Something like that).
      So my question is how much control do you have with brakes? I cuddle with both of them individually at night, what sweeties, but release them from their pen during the day? They are literally blur on our 5 acres. We have cats, kittens, bunnies, baby bunnies everywhere and I just hold my breath. So much fun to watch them RUN. We need to finish fencing this property, about 300 feet is left, that only leads to pencil jack pine maze...but they've yet to encounter the electric fencing of our horse paddocks.
      We've hooked them up, ONE at a time for now, and the other one of us is on their leash. The other boy is in his inside kennel. Kinda confusion. I want to just hook one for now up to my kick bike and 'control' or emphasize commands using the brakes. Hey, I am older and physical mistakes last a lot longer to heal.
      Tell me more about where you are in this process. Not to mention I've read all the books the videos I've found on this subject. I want someone who is doing the same thing! Shiloh sounds like a together, mature dog. Our boys are getting there. Nobody warned us about getting two males (you betcha they are neutered...we waited for a year before the chop chop) but HIGH PREY drive doggies we got! 120 pounds belongs to Jack. Zip is closer to 100. We watch and subscribe to Robert Cabral who doesn't do much with mushing but damn is he GOOD. Stay in touch?

      Quite a lot, but it's worth it in terms of reliability, and it's extremely difficult to keep other pulling animals up there like horses etc. With our horses you can get hay for next to nothing all year round, but with constant snow etc, having to buy hay would skyrocket compared to meat you can freeze and store for your dogs. So while expensive, they're the least expensive animal all around to keep.
