We've been having a hard time with Elway on his walks. He constantly pulls, and it hurts my fingers and my whole arm. Not to mention it can't feel good on his throat and neck to be pulling like that all the time and from our corrections.

So we enrolled in training classes that start next Sunday and we also bought him a backpack. We put some weight in the backpack, that way it slows him down and he uses more energy. He looks sooooo cute in the backpack. And he was almost perfect on his walk. He did a lot better. It will take time for him to get completely used to it though.



UPDATE: We accidentally left Elway alone with his backpack and he destroyed it. So much for that idea!

So Megan and I were at Himmel park today, and we were walking up and down hippie hill (for exercise). We get to the top of the hill, and Megan says "what is that?" and she points at this little black animal on the other side of the hill. I look and said "it's a dog...or maybe a pig. No, I think it's a dog." And right then a lady right behind us (literally two feet behind us) whistles to this black dog. Awkward. So, basically I said this lady's dog looked like a pig... I was incredibly embarrassed.
