A One Dog Open Sleigh

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


We spent a good chunk of our Thanksgiving holidays playing in the snow in the pasture behind our house. We built a spiral-track sledding "hill" in the middle of the pasture that works great for the circular sleds, and @yeti-the-dog has been pulling @thingone and @thingtwo around the pasture in a normal sled. The look of joy and near terror on the face of those boys when she starts picking up speed... priceless :)

This neighbor horse has been very interested in our activities. @yeti-the-dog has been trying to make friends with this horse through the fence for a while, but I think seeing Yeti pulling the kids on the sled might finally have won the horse over. The horse played with Yeti a bit after I shot this video.

My Google assistant tried to make a panorama out of some of the shots I took, and ended up making this frankenhorse! Thanks, Google :)

Mawr Horse

Because, white horse in white snowy field. You know?

That video does look like fun!
When I was a kid, my mom had a malamute husky that was big enough to pull my older brother on a sled. The dog knew the sled dog voice commands, so my brother could steer her to some extent.
So, what do you think of the 3Speak platform? I'm curious as to if it's worth adding to the websited that I use.

well there is a pretty hefty fee I think it was over 30 steem monthly if you want to upload videos. The upload works great and videos seem to play great. I did a one month subscription two months ago and easily made back the subscription money from upvotes from 3speak, but they have since then changed their curation to a method that gives upvotes based on how many views and comments a video generates, so I am not sure now if I will make enough on their upvotes to break even. Just kinda testing it out a bit myself, really.

This is very heart-warming it reminds me of my childhood in Kuwait sledding on a sandhill with my dad once.. he must have enjoyed it a lot and your neighbor's Mawr horse is so beautiful!

I have never been sledding on sand but I bet it is just as fun :) I grew up in Alaska, so plenty of the old fashioned snow sledding for me as a kid.
