14.01.2022 Hang in there Browny, we're with you.

13.01.2022 A great point from @The Divine Dog Project: Does your dog have a great relationship with you? Is he eager to be with you and is willing to be compliant to your cues? If not, you might want to revisit how you train and interact with your dog. Research shows that... " Aversive dog training methods those methods based on positive punishment and negative reinforcement affect the relationship your dog has with you. " ... Interactions involving " ... jerks on the leash, yelling at the dog, hitting the dog (all examples of positive punishment), or pulling the dog’s leash to choke their collar until they sat down (negative reinforcement) all helped to create fear, stress, and aggression in dogs. (Ziv 2017; Guilherme-Fernandes et al 2017). " " Research published last year in Applied Animal Behaviour Science by Dr. Ana Vieira de Castro (Universidade do Porto) suggests it also affects the dog’s relationship with their owner." https://www.companionanimalpsychology.com//dog-training-me

12.01.2022 Who's got the toilet paper?

11.01.2022 Fabrics ordered Foam and accessories delivered Patterns in progress Many have been asking if we are outsourcing or making these ourselves. Originally outsourcing was the plan but in light of recent historical events we have decided to start making them from home ... What does this mean? It means prototyping starts in the next 2 weeks, sizing will be more customizable and products will be made locally. So far over 90% of resources have been sourced in Australia with the exception of the Cordura Nylon we have selected for its durability, high quality, high density, water resistant and ripstop properties. Over the course of the next few weeks we will be keeping you updated with our product development process and trialling prototypes with local mushers in the area where possible. In the mean time, drop your favourite mushing pics below and let us know about your gear, what makes it special and what do you think could be done better! Pic of our girls last year at SHCV Race 3
