Kelley: Working It Out...

I have been taking Moose running with me now that he is one year old. The vet said I needed to wait until the one year mark so that his bones and joints could fully develop first. He is running about a mile and a half a day and I am building him up slowly to eventually complete 5k's. He really seems to like it.

We had a little accident today because he still does not understand staying to one side and away from my feet. Needless to say when my feet are brought to a sudden halt by a ball of fuzz entagled in my legs...I fall down and go boom! It was probably a bilarious site for my neighbors. Moose is learning discipline though. Usually if he got the chance to run he would do so and think it was a game for me to try and catch him. Today, as I was sprawled in the middle of the street he stopped looked at me with the most guilty/apologetic of faces, and returned to me when I called (the leash was not a high priority when I went splat)! So, we finished out the rest of the run and I was quite proud of him. We always go pick up Cricket after our run to finish up with a walk together.

I've been doing more work around the house to get it decorated and looking more and more like home for Nick and I. I finally finished the laundry room this weekend.
