Hand walking

[Officially Retired]

To me hand walking a hound does so much more one, it's true bonding time and two it allows that hound to be a dog he or she can get to use their noses and see the world thru the eyes of a dog and that is threw their nose! For me I like to not only build them up physically but also have them strong mentally! let them feel grass,gravel,sticks! These hounds are living beings who have emotions dogs are more intuned with us then we tend to believe! Kinetic energy is something thing I practice all the time with them dogs but they still know when I'm in a shitty mood! Lol long hand walks,Everybody benefits from those! plus it's less shit I have to clean up around my yard! :-) :-) :-)

This is a great post. If the dog is pulling hard into a harness, or dragging a little weight, handwalking does build muscular condition ... but it also builds a bond with the dogs.

I remember an interview I did with Coy Dickenson and he really did get in tune with his dogs ... never published it but maybe I should.
