'I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers'

Cooler temps have enabled us to enjoy regular runs with the dogs and it is so nice to get back into a routine. We train at our 'local' forest (about an hour's drive away) four times a week, two days on and two days rest and we have been really lucky that our training runs have been cool and dry so far. We started the dogs gently at 1.5 miles due to temps but the last week they have been telling us to up the mileage which we happily obliged and this pic shows the dogs lining out for another run after their extended run! Great to see them loving life on the trail. We have been adapting our teams to accommodate a bitch in season and have been doing some 'distraction' training. It's lovely to have a forest to yourself and the times we train means very few encounters with dog walkers so we have set up some positive distraction situations, in particular for our younger dogs with Matt running the teams and me going out on the trail as the 'distraction', this should help to counteract any potential situations at races with spectators, marshals and dog walkers on the trail.
