Winter wonderland ride to work with the big boy on his harness.
Wonderful ride, even though I snapped my chain and had to fix it with chilly fingers. Still made it to work on time.

Snow was gone but the ground still hard. We did the grind up the Rollercoaster, and Bzdog found the Three MuskeDeers again, but only accelerated us up to 25kph down the trail as we’re bikejoring.

Running 30:00 [3]
shoes: La Sportiva Uragano
Run in to work with the big guy on longline and collar.
He was doing fine hands-free, until Palgrave East where we spotted a deer standing right on the trail staring at us. Oh oh... I had my thumb hovering over the remote collar button and got a hand on the long-line, and told him to SIT.
Son of a gun- he instantly sat there and watched the deer!! I never needed the collar or longline. As we got closer, I could smell deer, and 2 more ran right in the bush beside us. He was on max alert, and stared a lot into the bush for the next 200m, but never needed more than voice.
Holy cow!

Big guy no-hands again. He politely asked me if we can take the long way via the switchbacks, so we did. One moment where I had to get his attention with the collar, otherwise perfect. Very mucky in spots.

Commute with AD with some speed intervals. Went down hard on some wet shiny ice- stupid Razors.
Also a lap at home with a flawless BZdog on his long line.

Brody’s biggest challenge yet- Haffy and Dingle with AD and BGY.
He was mostly free on his longline and collar, in a less familiar area with lots of squirrels and deer, and AD prancing around.
Not as good as last time. Moments of brilliance, but also a lot of telling him to SIT, and a few buzzes on the collar. I had to step on the longline a few times too. In the second half he sat on command while AD rocketed off after a squirrel at one point, ran beautifully in the open fields, but in a different venison-scented spot got so distracted that he ignored me and the collar, and I had to grab the line.
AD has learned to run just out of longline radius after the big guy schooled him for being a pain.
A bit psychologically tiring having to be in voice control all the time, but he had soooo much more fun than every other time on leash. Not ready to ditch the emergency longline yet.
