I have lots of friends in the ABSA thing. We used to have a husky girlie but lost her at xmas. She was beautiful, in nature and looks.
Never did the mushing with her as I'm disabled in a wheelchair.
We did used to take her on the bike through the local forests a few times a week, when cool enough.
We'd attach her with one of those 'springer' things. Which she broke about four times
Had to modernise the thing and put an M8 bolt through the bike frame. Hub used to take her, while I walked our little dog.
Togo our new mal pup, is still in basic training at the moment. Have you thought about one of those musher dog waist braces? Just a thought, to save your frozen shoulder.
Togo is way too strong for me to hold onto
Unless I fancy a spell on my butt sliding across the gravel paths in the Forest
