Siberians on Walkies at track, 3/4 mile, Sam & Ruth. Sam is MUCH
better in lead than Ruth, Sam works, Ruth looks around. Put Singer and Tom
on Sacco. To Bethel, then Firehall, Bill Clack's Pond, then back passed Beaver
Pond, 1
mile. Story.
9/12/02, Singer & Tom on the Sacco. Hayfields/shoulders down to Roddy
Road, back to Firehall and home. Singer on the left means she wants to push
Tom to the right the whole trip -- especially into traffic. Didn't have
this trouble when he's on the left. Still trouble fitting his
harness. 1.5 miles. Pictures.
