Yesterday I took Hadez and Ninja to a hike in the Black Forest.
I found a truly secluded spot and there were no signs of people or fresh tracks in the snow.
We moved deeper into the woods, climbed over fallen trees (from the past week’s storm most likely) and had a blast. As we were quite loud and I saw no signs of animals I let Ninja off-leash while Hadez, (who had his 5th birthday – you can send him a message here @kaihu_und_hadez ) had to stay leashed.
I tried to let him walk, but he was too excited, ignored my treats and I put him back on the leash.
.
We hiked for about 3 hours. Especially in the open areas the snow was knee-deep. The dogs loved it and so did I. The dogs often rolled in the snow, especially Hadez loves doing it, and laid down in the snow.
I was sweating like mad. It was not cold but the deep snow cost a lot of strength.
Don’t forget we usually do not have a lot of snow… we had like 1 day of snow this winter. At best it is ankle high before it melts again.
But we have the Jura to the South as well as the Black Forest to the North of we want to experience snow.
.
I decided to return to the next town to get Hadez a bunch of meat as a treat and looked for a secluded, large meadows covered in snow, without forest nearby.
Hadez was all of a sudden truly responsive and loved to dash after the meat in the snow.
That is the same I did with Ninja and it is the reason why he jumped forward into the snow.
