    " Hi! I’m Lachland Clarke on behalf of Expert Village. I would like to invite you to visit our website at www.teamclarke.org. Haw. That’s it Haw. I use a speed up command. Just for slowing down I will put the brake or drag mat on and say easy and I can slow them down that way. G, G, G, that’s it. See how the dog in the left pushed the right hand dog to the turn that I needed. So that was pretty good. They are both young dogs. Their turning ability is somewhat questionable but I wanted to just see how they would do. They have always been with older trained leaders and this is the first time they have lead through a bunch of turns with 2 young leaders. So it’s good because I can see them working together and some times the right hand dog makes the turn and sometimes the left. I think left hand dog is a shade stronger in terms of making the correct moves. "
