I bet that's a pain when clearing snow. Reverse tends to be a bit "challenging" on those systems ;)

Is that a boom pole giving them a push???

excellent idea and picture! I bet pulling that B7610(?) really gives that pack a work-out.

I bought harnesses for my two danes for the purpose of pulling firewood but I never ended up getting them to work

Good one Northland. If your great danes are like mine they would spend more time laying on the couch than they ever would working, case in point. Thor at 8 months and he hasn't got any more ambitious since.

Looks like he's pointing to an ice fishing hole. Sure seems as though he knows something is down below...

Sad thing is this is my back yard. The area is cleared for him, it is referred to as the "puppy playground." I think what he was looking for was grass!!!!!

With the price of fuel we all may end up going from HP to Dog Power! Now just figure a way for ground driven hyd's!

he's a big boy that Boxer of yours...maybe he could pull a sled with you in it. I bought a small ice fishing sled for my dogs to pull me or got them trained.

Peter-looks like my three lazy dogs. We are trying to keep our dogs off the furniture as they are getting wrecked by their claws and are covered in slobber marks.

My dogs have a futon (pallets underneath) in front of my desk in my office but they prefer sleeping on the sofa and loveseat in front of the fireplace. We chase them off ever night and morning.
