IMHO - its not a quantity issue its a quality issue (I apply this to ALL breeds of dog)
If I'm not feeling well (physically or mentally) and know I won't give my dog 100% I'd rather skip training that day. Mediocre training is likely cause more set backs for me then taking a day off.
I have great value in my relationships with my dogs so when I say a day off I don't mean they are rotting in a kennel - every bite of food or chance to go out side and exercise/play is "training/working" interaction with me. Some times less is more.....I hope that makes sense.

That is some interesting tracking. You should go out and try it. Of course if the snow is 4 feet deep, it is probably silly, but less than a foot you should try. It can be pretty tough, so if the dog is not far enough along, then maybe a really short track or not at all. Crusty snow is interesting to track in.

I know the dogs can do it. I've seen my mixed breed rescue, who has a TR1, track another dog foot-step to foot-step on hard-packed snow, on the road, in -20C weather. Never missed a beat.
And I'm in Northern BC, the snow does get a tad deep, and the weather a tad cold, and the days a tad short.
Yeah Spring!
