Thank you. I hope I don't lose anything on dry pavement with them. LOL, who knows, maybe I'll throw the stock shackles back on, and level it out, quit trying to be a street sleeper. They have to be better than the OEM handycacas.
They appear to be a good combination of DuraTracs and an all season type. These are also 3 peak snowflake rated. Those AT/M's are so bad in the snow, I just drove the Ranger last winter.

I won't have a dog I can't trust around people, and this was a lady she had met several times. I'm giving the training a shot on my own with a training collar (does sound, vibrate, and shock with a remote), if that doesn't work I'll look into hiring a trainer. If neither work I'll have to give her up. I can't have that behavior. I've got friends that have kids and will someday have kids myself, I don't want to have to worry about the dog attacking them or anyone else for that matter. She used to nip really bad if you were running or going somewhere she didn't like, thankfully that stopped. I really need to work on training my two better. Kylie will bolt down the street, Sadie usually won't, but neither one reliably come when called.

Somehow, I missed the first part of your reply, certainly wasn't ignoring you.
I had Seamus over to a trainer yesterday, and she commented on well behaved he is. Worked about 20 minutes with him, and already an improvement. She came right out and told me he may never get out of chasing, the breed thing, but showed me a shock collar that's worth a try. It'll be here Tuesday, and hopefully Wednesday we'll be back to the kennel.
I really wish you luck with those pups, they're very special breeds, I just feel in my case this guy is going to be with me for a long time, regardless of what I have to do. He might wind up using that collar forever when we go in the woods.
A trainer, a good one, can really show you stuff that I've never picked up in books, on line etc. Of course, being one on one like we are helps too. Damn the cost,he's worth it.
