Just walked and trotted Prince around the yard today.....maybe 1/4 mile. He was very responsive ...even trotting ( sometimes he's a little reluctant to trot...it's getting hotter every day so I don't blame him)
I don't remember the exact dates, but the previous week or so we squeezed in 2 1/2 mile walks, 1 1/4 mile ( was supposed to be 1/2 mile , but I got a call and had to go back ) and another walk around the yard because the tree trimmers were blocking the way so we couldn't get out.

 

[Capriole]

Walked, trotted (a little ) about 3/4 of a mile today.

(Resting in the shade for a few minutes)

Hershey and I did 1 mile in 20 minutes. He trotted most of the way, so I got my cardio in

Sometimes we're out for fun and sometimes is all about the cardio!

One mile for Mint and I. A nice walk until a dog spooked her. She bumped into me, I fell down, which scared her even more. She was looking at me like what are you doing? You've never done that before. I want to run! Once I was up she was ok. We were over 1/4 mile from home. So glad I was able to hold on. She settled in and finished our walk like nothing happened. Me, my heart was still racing

 

[MaryFlora]

Getting knocked over by a scared horse/pony is never any fun! Great work keeping Mint and you together!

Hope you are ok!

HAHA! Shadow knocked me on my hiney one time when he saw his first bike LOL LOL Who else has been knocked off their feet?

Good for you for continuing on! Take her for another walk tomorrow and go looking for that dog or any dog for that matter

Good she's mini. Seriously, are you okay?

 

[HersheyMint]

Yes, I'm ok Thanks for asking. Before I took her out I was working on some desensitizing. Now I'm thinking I should add me sitting on the ground when I do it.

1.2 miles with Midnight. We were on the cardio walk, though we did practice "stand" a few times. I need her to stand while I get litter out of the ditch. Our walks are also "litter runs". A very rude guy drove by us, gunning the engine as he passed. But Midnight was okay.

 

[Cayuse]

About 20 minutes with Peanut today. 15 for Friday.
