Dan enjoying himself.
It is has been a long time coming, literally a decade. But Dan has finally replaced the trail bike he lost in the Boundary Fire. (see pictures and read more here) Not sure who is more excited – Dan or the dogs.
In the summer we like to find ways to keep the dogs active and entertained. We do small team command training with the quad in our field and around the property. We also like to have retired dogs loose outside with us when we are working in the yard. Plus the trails where we live are ideal for free running the dogs, and a motorcycle is a great way to do that*. OK you can go with the quad**. And technically you can even run with the dogs***. Of course the dogs enjoy a hike as well, but nothing is as much fun for them as a good all out blast with some buddies down the trail. And for our trails an off road motorcycle is a great option for free running. Not to mention Dan really missed having a trail bike out here; so it was great that he found an amazing deal on this one.

Today the dogs got to enjoy the new bike for the first time. Continue reading →
