Maximus Ferret 2,063 Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Afternoons it's just an easy stroll or some pulling. When you say pulling do you mean pulling weights or springpole? ie. pulling forwards or backwards? Edited June 20, 2014 by Maximus Ferret Quote Link to post

C556 351 Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Afternoons it's just an easy stroll or some pulling. When you say pulling do you mean pulling weights or springpole? ie. pulling forwards or backwards? I attach a 5m sling to his harness and put it round my shoulders or hips. Then I let him pull me as hard as he likes round country roads and trails for a couple of hours. Quote Link to post
Neal 1,869 Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Try living with a kelpie...I don't get the chance to have lazy summers any more...mine are still searching for the sunniest spot in the garden in a heatwave. Last summer I took the six year old bitch out for a five hour walk up on the Downs when the hot weather started and, after a lot of coaxing, I finally managed to encourage to her to take a couple of sips from a puddle, but I could tell she was only doing it to please me.

Neal 1,869 Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 Not certain Bird, but I think the heelers are slightly more heat resistant...but there's a bit of heeler in kelpies and a bit of kelpie in heelers. Quote Link to post
