RACING season

After getting snow pretty late we finally can train in Haidmühle (Bavarian Forest) on a nice groomed, hilly sprint trail since Dec.19th. With a lot of ATV and freerunning speed-training our dogs seem to be pretty good prepared for the following racing season. Michael is able to race on the Alpirace from Jan 4th to 12th. It´s a new world sprint class stage trophy in 3 Austrian places. They have a live video coverage of the race. Check for updates and info at www.alpirace.info

His additional races are the sprint races in Todtmoos (Black Forest) Jan 28th/29th, the European Championchips in Tarvisio/Italy Feb 3rd to 5th and the German Championchips in Carlsfeld on Feb 11th/12th. WE´re hoping our dogs stay healthy and happy and have fun travelling and running these upcoming races.
Check back for updates!
He probably only will start in the open/unlimited class because we lost our limited class lead dog Unox on Dec 5th. He died after fighting 6 weeks against a bad reaction on his yearly vaccination. We´re pretty sad about his dead and miss him very much. Unox was a very big hearted, people loving and always happy and active dog and in training this year it seems like he´ll be running best ever in his live.
We will keep him in our minds and race our dogs like he wanted to do it with his love and will to run. (this picture shows Unox and Cheyenne in lead on the race in Rauris 2005)
