> From: <[log in to unmask]> Max was already chasing me during play, so walking went just about the same. Sometimes he would just stop and lie down, or wander around a tree, or roll in the grass, but he pretty much just followed my feet. Dawn controls the leash to keep him from running under my feet, and maintaining a good speed keeps him going. It usually takes a couple of minutes and a few false starts, but then he moves very well, with the exception of freezing in place when a car or truck goes by. When ther's an excessively noisy vehicle such as a diesel, we have to carry him till we've cleared the noise zone. One day we did three miles with him on a trip to the video store.
