Oliver has had a harness for a while, since he was still trying to bite me (before much training and diet change). I still need to fully machine stitch it, but he thinks it is comfy enough to pull just fine. Here he is with a cart that weighs more than him, which he pulls with ease, even on this rough ground. He tackles turns with terrier attitude, making him one dog that I didn't really have to train much to pivot, he just throws himself into the shaft and pushes, crossing over in front as necessary.
Pulling the mini Christmas tree across the clearing, with Marq with the real one.
His head topknot needs some growth, but you can see that it is coming in nicely.
Look at that coat! He's gone from short shaved to looking like a show pup growing in coat. The groomers at Petco saw him for the first time in a while when I took him in last night to wash, and were impressed. Oliver is lucky that he's got proper coat - not wooly but a nice silky drop coat that isn't really that hard to maintain. He's not likely to ever be totally long, just with living in a farm situation, but it is still growing out nicely. He also loves looking good, and just seems thrilled with a bow and all brushed out and bathed. strange dog.
