I took both dogs for a walk yesterday. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon. I walked them down to the river as once you're on the trail they are easier to manage.
Walking down the hill and past a couple streets, I get a lot of stares. I have to swallow my pride and try not to be self- conscious.
Elka is good for 6 + miles, while Coco is ready to be carried after a good 6 blocks.
I didn't really try to make Elka heel as that just seemed like a lot of work while trying to keep Cocoa from going under my feet.
So I am walking down the hill with Elka giving a steady pull out in front(not too far) and Coco meandering back and forth in front of me and then sprinting ahead of Elka.
It wasn't bad experience, because I did it again today.
By the end of the walk I had Elka's leash slipped over my waist and was carrying Coco.
They're my girls and I enjoy taking them out despite any character comparisons people might make between me and a certain eccentric dog lover in town.
