NAMK gathering at Kalhovd.

The whole family went up to Kalhovd, We had a realy good weekend with good people and weather.
The dogs got a lot of socialization meeting both 2 and 4 legged.


 

We got some points on how to traing the dogs in everyday obeidience, sleding and shows.

On Saturday Jack and Lea got the chance to try out "Lead dog test". Jack wasn't that fond of  the chain he had behind him and we need to work on the commands. Maybe next year..?
Jack also had show training and did very well, and we got some pointers on grooming.  So we are looking forward to the dog show at Ringebu.

Jack tried with the chain, and Lea without



Sunday Jack and Lea had the backpack test. Dogs and backpack had to weigh in, something that Jack and Lea wasn't used to.
Along they way we met a couple of lemmings, and of course Jack and Lea thought it was very fun to chase them as they were running away. And to top it of, they tok a bite in some of them. Luckily they spit it out again.

They completed and has now received a diploma for completed bronze mark.

The test has started, and we walked towards Mårbu, 7 dogs with packs and some joined in for the trip.

This has been a very good trip for all of us. 
We've gotten the chance to learn new things, and meet new people and dogs.

We're looking forward to next gathering, and hope more will come.
