Ok, my first post here in a few months.. wow I missed a lot, lol.. I try to walk my two siberian huskies on a regular basis atleast every other day but lately I've been so busy and getting home late that i haven't really had the chance. Family doesn't walk them for me when I'm away or busy anymore so that doesn't help. However when I am home and not busy about once a week, usually the weekend, I'll either take them both hiking for about 5 - 8 miles up and down some mountains or.. I have trained them to pull a dog scooter, which is like a light weight sled with wheels but only two wheels, we will run for about 3 to 4 miles on some back wood trails if the temperature is below 40 or so. I just bought a training rig for them so I now have a full blown wheeled cart that is to immitate a sled when we don't have snow, most of the time here. Plus I train my girlfriend's two huskies to pull so I have a sled team of 4 to run. Next is the sled.. this definitelly isn't a cheap hobby so that's kind of slowed down on how much we can run too. The cart we got from a referral for cheap but they go for about $800 new depending on what kind you get.. that was a good cheap one. Plus lines.. harnesses and other convenience equipment.. and a good truck to transport them with of course. :p
