Dan, (mfd) excellent post and excellent advice and guys, I'm a member of the UBT as well with my WH Dachshund Axel. I'm still in the training process and with my injury this year I temporarily removed my name from the tracking list....I'll be back and so will Axel.

Again, great advice given by everyone here in the thread. Let's keep them coming. Remember, a quick recovery is what we're all after.
