  1. The boys in our garden, snow falling, around 11 months ago before the puppy came along . This video makes me smile http://www.youtube.com/huskygurl20#p/a/u/1/RhYgwyOX_zs
  2. Val, in the meantime feel free to contact the house admin people if you fancy a wee winter holiday with the dogs and lots of land! xx
  3. Oh well, im going to get proper info about the place when i visit, photos, the lowest price, and come back with a better deal lol.
  4. Really? Im afraid i dont know much about Epilespsy in dogs, perhaps you could put a post up and ask
  5. Really Angela, have you been around the land then? Do you think its suitable and a large enough trail area for running, and worth a visit? xx
  6. Hi Claire, I thought it was more like £100 - £150 for the permit? Thats what i had been told by some mushers! There would be wash/change/tea and toilet facilities etc somewhere like this as its private, which is why it appealed to me and i thought others would appreciate that part of it also, perhaps i should have said that on my post. Going home soggy isnt fun lol. I also would only be interested if there were lots of people wanting to rent the place as a group to reduce the price I couldnt find an opportunity like this and not make people aware.
  7. Hi Angela, Which forest do you go to? Feel free to tell your Ayrshire friends lol. Im quite sad that there hasnt been many people interested, though i do understand that people arent spending cash on this kind of thing at the moment..... The man seems quite flexible, i was thinking about asking him if he would be interested in renting out to people at the weekends only, which is when most people would use it! (i work full time) Of course again, we would need to see it first. Im going to visit and take pics though....
  8. Awww poor Bob, why does the epilepsy stop you from fostering though?
  9. I think everyone starts off that way, but not for long! Its a way of life lol xx
  10. Hello all! I posted this in another forum but didnt have much interest, just thought i would make you guys aware too Sorry its a bit lengthy Anybody interested in renting 12 acres? Im nosie and text the man who posted the ad, he said that the trails on this land are fairly even and could be levelled off further. The man has an interest in husky running and fancies a go at husky mushing, and thinks using the land for that is an 'interesting proposal'.... Anyway maybe there will be group of people interested? I would be!! Oh and the man confirmed via text that it is 12 acres. 12 acres could be alot if the trail was a circular/8/oval shape? http://www.gumtree.com/p/flats-houses/f ... d/88469149 (I later added) The man who posted the gumtree advert has just phoned me, sounds like a nice person and coincidentally stays 2 streets away from me.... The story is that he looks after the land and a holiday home there on behalf of his brother when he is not using it. The use of the rented holiday home gets quiet in the winter so training on the land in the winter months like owners do, generating an income for them during this time is ideal for them, and us! The man is willing to help make the land suitable for running if it isnt already. There is a paddock of horses in a field attached with 8 acres but they are fenced away from where the dogs would be. We are able to visit the place obviously for a look. The holiday home is also up for rent and 'dog friendly' and there are outhouses, the man said he is willing to turn these into kennels if people wanted to rent the holiday home in the winter and use the land to run on. There was also talk that if there was interest in renting the 'dog friendly house/ kennels' during the winter months, that we may even be able to use the land for free the rest of the winter The holiday home is http://www.bennanhouse.co.uk/index.html I think £200 per month is a really good price for 12 acres of land to use whenever you like, and an owner willing to change the land if required to make it fit for purpose.... If there was a group of people interested then it could be... 5 people interested - £40 each per month 10 people interested - £20 each per month 15 people interested - £13 each per month 25 people interested - £8 each per month 30 people interested - £6 each per month Oh well, id visit and probably go for it if i liked it, its an hours drive from my house, but i cant afford it on my own. Was just an idea OBVIOUSLY isnt not something people would do without seeing the place, and the man is happy for anybody to do that. Always been a dream of mine to have some countryside land and this is the least expensive option that ive seen.
  11. p.s, i meant the 2 boys on the rig, Mishas too young still
  12. Thanks everyone Oh im the queen of husky photos, dont worry about a lack of them lol. Yup The tall grey boy is my Kai, hes 4 years old and will be 5 in April We got Frasie a year later to keep Kai company, he is Kais brother from a second and last litter. Misha is Kai and Fraser's puppy niece (sisters daughter) who we decided to take home at the beginning of September, she had previously been taken by a man who took her and a littermate home but then decided he couldn't cope with 2 pups so gave Misha back!! she has changed lots since we got her as you can see from the pics below! She is such a little torag, so naughty!! We bought our first rig last year and the boys have just started running with it, theyre both naturals and of course love it!! Looking forward to getting the 3 of them on the rig again now that the cold Scottish weather is coming in All your furries look gorj also!!
  13. Yep i tried to upload them but the file sizes were too big. Can we use photobucket? Lets try....
  14. Hello all, Im on other forums but didnt know this one existed Hello from Me, Kai Frasier and Misha xxxx
