Where can I learn more about getting gear to sled, cart, scooter, or skijor with my dog?

Author: admin  //  Category: Scooter Accessories

I live in the midwest and the snow is starting to melt so skijoring is actually fairly far from my mind, but I am going to be getting a Siberian in the next few months (historically used for sledding) and a friend of mine is wanting to get an Akita within the next few years (historically used for carting). I’ve heard its a great team-work experience for you and your dog and a great way to give them the added excerise they really need (especially for huskies).

The best site I’ve found so far for carts is http://www.k9carting.com/ but I don’t really have anyone else to compare the price or quality with. Has anyone used them before? They seem to have a lot of user-friendly options including a riding cart & cargo carts, and additional accessories which can turn a single cart into a team cart and carts into sleighs.
Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find any clubs or locals who participate in these sorts of activities yet.

I recommend all new musher go to Sled Dog Central.
It is a great resource, with listings of events, clubs, suppliers, and mentors.

When you are getting started it can be absolutely valuable to have a mentor. Someone with experience who can help make sure you are getting the correct gear, well fitted and designed for mushing. And local clubs also offer a great amount of information and put you in touch with established mushers in your area. If you are very lucky you may even be able to work with some of thier dogs to help learn more about the sport.

here is the clubs listing:

and the mentors listing:

You might also consider voluntering to be a handler for an established musher, it is a great way to learn and gain experience without having to purchase your own dog team and all the gear that goes along with it. many people are not really aware of how expensive (and addictive) this sport can be. Even a small recreational team will cost you a really huge amount of money. You may find cheaper dogs, but you still have to feed and care for them. Also working dogs really do have special requirements, both physical and mental. As someone new to working with sled dogs I strongly recommend that you find a good local mentor to make sure you know what you are getting into, and learn about how to live with working dogs

Are these perfect gifts for my ten year old girl, turning 11, soon?!?

Author: admin  //  Category: Scooter Accessories

We have not had a real birthday in 2 years. I decided to get her a few things. Here is the list of things I got her for Christmas and what I will give her on her birthday. Tell me what you think:

Christmas Presents from Friends and Family and me:

Her Grandma gave her a IPod Classic, her grandmother actually gave IPod Classics to all of her Grandchildren with a $20.00 I Tunes gift card. She also gave the kids, a IDog and accessories for it.

Grandmother: Her other Grandmother took her to the mall before Christmas Eve and let her make her own bear at build a bear workshop, her Grandmother said that was her only gift.. She surprised her on Christmas with a new American Girl Doll! (Her 10th one!)

Grandfather: Her Grandfather went all out and bought her making kits, tie dying kits, you name it. He got her like 10 boxes and it had 3 per box.

Grandfather: He gave her plenty of gift cards, money and a wallet. He surprised her with clothing and blankets too.

Aunt: Her Aunt gave her a makeup kit. Lip Liner, Eye Liner, Eye Shadow, Cover Up, Lip Stick, Lip Gloss, Blush, you name it! It had different colors too…

Uncle: Her Uncle gave her a new pair of Converse and Crocs.

Aunt: Her Aunt gave her a Winter Wardrobe before winter, as one of her gifts, and for Christmas she gave her a board game and Uggs.

Uncle: Her Uncle gave her different little things. He gave her candy too and a cake maker.

Sisters and Brothers: He sisters and brothers put their money together to give her a new toys. You name it.

Parents: We gave her toys, roller blades, and a scooter. We also gave her sleds and snowboards, but we gave it to her before Christmas because of the big snow storm. For all her siblings and her, we bought a Wii with like 30 games.

Santa: Santa got her a few toys, a new oboe, a $100 dollar gift card to the mall, little things, school supplies, duct tape (different colors) board games, chalk, art set, jewerly maker, cosmetic maker, and a labtop. We also had new dvd’s and video games.

Here is her birthday list of things we already planned out, Her family calls in saying what they are going to get her, we give them money to buy it. They usually buy expensive things. Here is the list.

The Grandmothers (4 because my parents are divorced and my husbands parents are divorced) are going to give her a Summer Camp Application to Horse Back Riding Camp.

The Grandfathers (4) are going to give her a new pair of converse, a new pair of crocs, a new pair of uggs and some clothing for her. A new wardrobe.

The Aunts (6) are going to give her a DSI. She got a nintendo from them last year, with like 25 games and she is going to get a DSI and 10 new games. She will have like 60 games now!

The Uncles (6) are going to give her a new bike. Last year they split into 3 uncles per gift. One gift was a surf board, another was a dirt bike. Everyone in our family has ATV’s, dirtbikes and surfboards, so… They also are giving her fun things for the beach, since we are going to Hawaii this summer from June 20th to August 10th. Her Horse Back Riding Camp is June 10th to June 15th and August 10th to August 15th.

Brothers and Sisters (3) They are going to give her toys, and gift cards. They are also giving her art sets.

Mom: I am giving her a new puppy. She has a lot of pets. We have fish, goats,pigs, sheep, donkeys, horses, chickens, cats, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, bunnies and we are missing a dog. Her siblings requested some of those animals and we raise them together. We also have small animals like frogs and hermit crabs. We run a family farm so we have to have all of the barn animals and her siblings requested small animals and cats. We are getting a parrot/finch/dove for our farm for a Valentines Day present. She always wanted a dog. Last week I found a cute, small puppy that was 1 week and she is ready on the day before her birthday. We adopted it 2 days ago. That is her surprise. We are also throwing a surprise party for family and another for friends :)

Dad: Her dad is giving her a makeover to her room. He is painting her room and getting new furniture. He is also giving her a new television in her room with tivo and cable and a dvd player.

We have family friends who are sending her little computer games, things like that. She is also recieving a expensive piggy bank…

PLEASE DONT CALL HER SPOILED, WE DO THIS TO EVERYONE. EVERYONE LOVES HER AND WE LOVE THEM. SHE IS LIVING THE LIFE.

Lady, Are you insane? How are you going to top it for next year? Buy her a 3 ring circus? She gets a DSI and 25 games? A Wii and 30 games? Who does that!? I have a ton of extremely rich friends and they don’t spoil their children like you do. Pace yourself.
I hope you all have already set 100k aside for each of your children for their college funds. And I hope you are also having them spend some time in soup kitchens or homeless shelters or some place where they can understand that not everyone has their lives without wants or needs.

It is obvious that your daughter doesn’t do anything to have to earn what she wants. Trust me, in the long run, she will appreciate it much more if she works for it and although she is probably very sweet and loving child, you are doing her a grave disservice as she will grow up expecting everything without having to work for it. Tsk Tsk.

OMG… I just replied to your San Diego question, very nicely I might add, only to realize that it was the SAME person! Ugh, I deleted it. Shame on you. I started thinking, this is odd, both these kids are getting DSI’s and puppies. So I went back to the author and lo and behold there is good ol MUTT. Tsk Tsk Tsk.
