We have discovered a great sport that we can enjoy with our Icelandic Sheepdogs.
Dog Scootering! (a form of Dryland Mushing) and Micro Mushing! (Mushing with 1 to 3 dogs)
Help has arrived to advance our sleddog skills. Meet Chilli & Milan, and Caesar.

We will be teaching our Dogs the following Commands for Scootering:
Hike: Go Forward
Whooooa: Come to a Smooth Stop
Gee: Turn Right
Haw: Turn Left
This Way: Go in the Direction the Scooter is Pointing
On By: Go on by a Distraction
Line Out: Stand Still with the Tug-Line Taut, Facing Forward
Easy: Go Slower
Hup Hup: Go Faster
Additional Commands we'll work on learning as we progress...
Gee Back: Come Back Towards Me to the Right
Haw Back: Come Back Towards Me to the Leftt
Gee Over: Steer to the Right-Hand side of the Trail, Road, etc.
Haw Over: Steer to the Left-Hand side of the Trail, Road, etc.
Trot: Trot instead of Lope
