Update on my training with Okee

Okee and I are still training together.  We mostly walk now.  When we do run, we do short sprints of maybe 50 to 100 meters?  We are pretty good at keeping pace with each other.  I don't know if she lets me run in front of her or what.

I also practiced carrying her a few times during our many walks together.  This practice came in helpful because I had to carry her quite a few times when we went to Ruff Mudder recently.  I don't know if she is too old to jump now or if she injured herself while we were driving to the event.  Okee is the type of dog that won't sit during a car ride. 

This week, I discovered a new way of training.   I used to stand and wait when she poos or smell the trees and etc.  I decided to jog on the spot or run back and forth at the length that the leash would allow me. 

Sometimes, it's more fun running with Okee because she is a moving obstacle.
