Written by Filippo’s booking for a ski tour with our Siberian Pack came quite early in fall 2024.
Right after our go-live with mountainhusky.com.
The challenge for us was to design the setting in such a way that his loyal and still quite young Malinois could accompany our Siberian Train on a ski tour.
Hubs and Hannes had little experience with this breed of dog. However, it turned out that in the end they had taken the most important points into account when working with the well-trained and disciplined German shepherd.
- Filippo had to take off the Malinois before we could help him with the ski touring equipment and the line-out.
- Protecting its master is the Malinois’ lifeblood. One move without first being put down and the joint project ends with a bite.
- The Malinois had to walk at heel consistently to avoid distracting or possibly provoking our male dogs in particular. Avoiding an altercation between the animals was at the top of the to-do list.
- The downhill sequence was the most challenging task, as it was Filippo’s dream to ski down together with our pack: the risks of cuts on the legs of the four-legged friends with Filippo’s ski edges, and our newly assimilated Malinois in the downhill with 8 Siberians, had to be managed.
With a lot of calm, attentiveness, an individual approach to the animals and a slight distance to our huskies, we also mastered this challenge in the end.
Animals work with energy. Energy is vibration >> Frequency >> Pattern.
This means letting the air out of the balloon: Take your time. Consider. Decide. And only then move on.
What do we learn from this?
In our Western civilization, school and the like have taught us exactly the opposite.
It has to be quick. The exam questions have to be answered to a specific wording. Preferably immediately and shot from a pistol.
The reality?
… looks different. Because the difference between theory and practice is greater in practice than in theory! Applying the rules of our civilization on that day would probably have ended in disaster.
Yes, it is:
It was a day full of endorphins, a day in the powder of the Lechtal Alps, a day with the thoroughbred Italian Filippo and his Malinois, a day full of memories, a day full of impressions on camera.
