newfsie Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 It was our Kennel Club Christmas break-up.....Annabelle had all the human Newfie shaped cookies in her cart and the Bone cookies for the dogs. I wrapped 80 cookies here is my Darling Annabelle, she loves carting I unharnessed her for some of the games, she loves the games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mita Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Annabelle is a dream, so beautiful & clever taking her cart around. The 1st pic is wonderful. Should be on a Christmas card! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumof3 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 When I was a kid, I used an old stroller to make a cart for my golden retriever, and I put my toddler brother in it and got my poor old dog to pull him around. Eventually Mum and Dad bought me a horse and I broke it into harness. Loving that gorgeous dog and its cart. Can you sit in the cart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Hubby made it for me........And he did an awesome job on the shafts, they are beautifully carved Wow, your hubby carved them!? I thought they must have been proper professionally bent shafts - they look so good. What a terrific hubby! And you drive your horses!? I'd love to get back into that. I've been thinking about buying a kids pony that is broken into harness (well and truly quiet), and saddle (beginner off lead child rider) so that the kids could have a pony and I could have a harness horse again. It is a delightful hobby with the right animals. What did your horses think of the dog pulling a cart around? Did it freak them out? Good on you. What a lovely dog, what a lovely cart, what a lovely hubby, and what a great hobby. If you know of a horse for sale for me, PM me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newfsie Posted December 20, 2010 Author Share Posted December 20, 2010 thats a fabulous cart I'd love one for my malinois and dogue de bordeaux! We used to have a Terveuren in the eighties and we carted with her, we adored our Lobo. We also did with our GSD..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loving my Oldies Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 (edited) Do you have one that would fit a Terrier Mix, please, of 3.5 kilos? ;) . Absolutely gorgeous, Newfsie. You obviously have a wonderful way with all your dogs. Makes me think of the old [very ] Beatles song "All You Need is Love".

Souff Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Beautiful dog, beautiful cart. Pat on the back for OH please, and a huge pat for your Newfie for not getting stuck into all those bikkies in the cart ! Hardly anyone ever mentions that dogs like Newfies and Rottis were regularly used in harness, and loved it, delivering things around the place on a daily basis. Thanks for the reminder and the lovely photos. Souff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reminder and the lovely photos. Souff Yes Annabelle loves her carting and gets quite upset when you take her out of the shafts. She choose to lie near the shafts as soon as the harness goes on. And she has a bounce in her step when she carts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
