Winter solstice, an ancient day of celebration. This year it happens at 12:47 PM on December 21st. That’s when winter starts, but it is also the longest night of the year and then the daylight gets longer. Winter is a time for rest, renewal and all that crap, and training dogs in the dark. I shouldn’t mind doing that, training in the dark, since a lot of our searches end up being at night.
But there is something slowing and inertia-like about coming home after dark and then trying to pack the dogs up to go out and train. Let alone trying to stay warm.
The good thing is that the dogs don’t care if it light or dark, just as long as they get to work or, in their mind, get to play.
