Hot on the Trail
Ringo and I have been doing a lot of walking lately, a new routine I began when Moose was benched because of his knee injury. What began as a way to tire Ringo out so he wouldn’t interfere with Moose’s recovery, has turned into a training opportunity that has noticeably improved Ringo’s leash walking skills.
I’m hoping this is a precursor to Ringo becoming a running dog. I’ve had a lot of time off from running this year and I’m beginning a gradual and cautious return. It would be fantastic to have him as a running partner a couple of days each week.
We had blazing hot weather for today’s walk at Crosswinds Marsh with temperatures in the mid-nineties and plentiful sunshine. We found a shady spot to cool off in and I got this beautiful shot of Ringo taking a breather. ❤️
