Great looking dog. Is she the dog you do agility with?
Thanks haha, that cuteness lets her get away with a lot of shenanigans... and yes it's the agility dog! She's very good at it but always gets too excited during competitions to almost always being disqualified. I don't mind, we're just doing something fun together.
I used to do Schutzhund with my old American Bulldog. We had fun, but she was terrible at bite work. She was a lover, not a fighter.
Woah, that sport just seems wild to me! Haha, well we get the dog we get - and who doesn't want a cuddle bug?
I practice canicross with my dog but she hates it. Running without chasing anything is just not fun. On skiis it works for some reason - when she's in the mood. But when we run canicross she just barks angrily at me until she either gives up or gets me to stop. I got an active breed because I wanted a running partner 😅
Schutzhund is a great training regimen. It's not rea protection training, imo. The "bite work" is choreographed. Its just a great system to train a dog. The only reason I did it was because of my dog's breed. I trained dogs my whole life without an issue, but American Bulldogs have a reputation (dog racism) and we had a young child. It turns out that both my dog and I enjoyed the training. It really wasn't necessary, though, because she was the smartest, sweetest, most stable dog I ever owned.
That's a cute pup. She seems rather small to be pulling you on skiis. Do you mean, your wearing skiis and she pulls you or she pulling you while sitting in a skii, I don't know what that's called.
She's 21 kg and a lot of muscle so she pulls just fine hehe.
I think its called skijoring?
Hahah, her breed is a finnish lapphund, so we rarely use shoes for her apart when she pulls us on skiis.
