Lightning Builds a Gate
17
month old BISS Am/Can Ch. Wolf River's Moonlight Ridge* (Lightning) helped to rebuild the
log gate on our driveway. It had rotted away several years ago. We searched our land for a
sturdy 20 foot
long log. Finding just the right one, Paul took most of the branches off so that
it would drag smoothly.
We
then wrapped a chain around the thickest end, and hooked it up to Lightning's
special weight pull harness. Then he dragged it into position. We're easing our
boy into weight pulling, and this was the heaviest load he's been asked to pull
to date. The log easily weighs more than he does, though we have no idea exactly
how much more. The new gate works beautifully, and we will think of Lightning whenever we open or close it!
