You know when it's darn cold out when the power lines are singing and there is that hard crunch sound walking on the snow.
Temps have been hovering around 36-38 below...too cold to work dogs who try and walk on 2-3 legs as well just too hard on livestock
outside of just getting chores done. Time spent outside is bedding and feeding extra to see livestock through the miserable cold snap.
On the Herding Canada list a discussion led to the suggestion of reading the book by Barbra Schulte a Cutting Horse trainer
'Cutting, One Run At A Time' for the mental part of training and competiting, as it could easily be used in the trial world...
What a Performance Coach! Just reading her blog http://barbraschulte.com/ is Inspirational as well truely Motivating
Just in time for the winter holidays is the entry on her blog on "The Nine Things To Know About Taking A Break'
a website well worth book marking for anyone that competes with animals.
