Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Not sure about the wheeled cart, hopefully someone else will chime in on that, but here's a thread that has a lot of good information on harnesses:

On a side note though, you shouldn't have Jinx doing any running on a hard surface until she's around a year old. Anything other than normal running around in grass before a year old runs a pretty significant risk of damaging her growing joints.

Its not so much for Jinx yet. I'm still trying to leash train her, the last thing i need is to tell her pulling is ok, lol. But i think it would benefit Colby a lot and Jinx as well, but not till she's older. Also, Colby doesnt have a high energy level AT ALL, so i was going to do more walking and hauling stuff like groceries and the occasional neighborhood kid [they all love her], etc.

You're welcome Smile Glad you found some. It's seriously fun to get them out pulling, and for us Ghost loves to do it. Unfortunately it's too hot now, so we have to hold off until fall.

I can't wait until the Navy lets me move somewhere that gets snow again. I loathe living in the FL panhandle.
