Today was a very exciting day in the dog yard. Tina arrived yesterday from Georgia to pick up her things and visit for a short time. It was fun to have her and the dogs sure enjoyed it.  We did not have a lot of time to run because of a Christmas party at noon but we got to run some. We booted all the dogs and then lined them all out. Boyd was there to help so it made it easier even with the -11 temp. There was a light wind so it was about -22 to -25.

Once all the dogs were lined out we were off. We went through the hay-field for a few minutes and then headed out to the golf course. The dogs were great and doing much better with out necklines. I agree with Sue Allen that I will never use necklines again on regular training runs or racing. Maybe with puppies initially to get them moving in the right direction but we will see.

Due to the time constraint we only got 12 miles done but it was a real fun 12 miles. Tina and I both enjoyed it.

I have to go to Mpls for an eye appointment on monday so we will not run again until Tuesday.

We had a party for Tina on Sat evening. The picture is of Tina, Sue, Cameron and Boyd.
