Sort-of related (dog ownership/responsibility/training), but
I had an absolutely remarkable experience yesterday. A
bunch of 'em, but the one that surprised me the most was
this: I took the sled and some dogs up to Connecticut Hill
yesterday for our first run on snow of the season (I shipped
my houseguest off on Saturday), and because it was a
beautiful day and because I didn't get up there until 10:30
or so the place was pretty busy, mostly with x-c skiers. An
awful lot of these skiers had dogs with them, and all of the
dogs were off-leash. And here's the thing: as far as I
could tell every single dog was obedient, came when called,
stuck close to the owner, and just generally behaved
extremely well. I couldn't tell you the last time (if
ever!) I've been around that many pet dogs who were that
well-behaved. It was a great experience.
