First snow!!

What a great day Elmo and I had. We had a chance to go mushing on a first snow day! We went over to Heini's and she let us try her sleddog team. Well , a part of it anyway. We also had a chance to try out our Groenendael Redion Goguette. He actually had a clue what he was doing ( Thanks to Henri who practised last winter with him) and Heini said he was going to be fine sled-groenendael!

On the team: bordercollies Pikkupaimenen Tiger Lily and Fancaros Adeline. Collie Saruskan Golden Empress and our Groenendael Redion Goguette. Elmo is enjoying the speed and Heini is mushing without the head! :)

Jihaaaaaa ,here we come! It was so much fun. Thank you so much Heini!! :) We will come back!!

Exciting Collie News!!

I am so excited about the news I have about Milla ( Utopian WW Vintage Blue). Heini Seppä who is very talented dog trainer ,asked our Milla for her team as a sleddog. (sled Collie!!) I didn't want to sell Milla, so we made another kind of arragement and now Milla is over there practising how to become a sleddog! And who knows what else Heini might teach her. Heini is very serious about the sport and they are actually practising for the working trial for sleddogs. I just can't wait to see them in action!! All these fabulous pictures are taken by Heini and you can see her in action in the bottom of these pictures. What a great new adventure for collies! You can read more about Heini's dogs in www.heiniseppa.fi/koirat.htm or http://pinjashira.vuodatus.net . Check it out, very interesting!!
