That is insane. It is only a matter of time before those dogs find something worth chasing if even only a few meters before they are distracted by the person's screams of pain.
I think a squirrel would be better. I have seen a few dogs walk right by a cat, but a squirrel ? nope, that is food to them. looks like a stupid way to handle the dogs really. and I would say she(?) has not done this very long either. or maybe it part of her weight loss program ? most of the dog walkers i saw where on the lean side. just saying. dave in pa.
I have a dude in the neighborhood, hooks up his great big muscle bound dogs to his waist/chest and goes for a jog. Whenever he sees me, he has to dig in and try to keep his dogs from tearing me and my pooch apart. I carry a pistol exactly for this reason, wild dogs or wild humans, I have a plan to survive.
Looks like the tan one has spied something interesting, and dogwalker is leaning back to restrain it. Just wait until the others catch wind of whatever it is. Dogwalker is gonna become a human qamutik and the Iditarod will be on.
Perhaps the Huskies are well-trained as sled dogs. That training would have to include not running off after squirrels, etc., which could wreck a sled. But I have no idea how it's accomplished.

I was wondering if that's in Ireland, but the road is too wide...

ReplyDeleteDon't some people train Huskies to pull big, heavy things somewhere? And, on snow and ice, I think....wish I could witness the finale!!
