Walks

We've amped up the walk. Two blocks now with a large hill. Of course walking this neighborhood includes a hill no matter which way you slice it. DH feels it is good for her anyway as it requires her to push off with her back legs, thereby exercising and strengthening them.

Lucy bobs her head going up the hill, so she's still pulling from the front. She's also hot and panting by the end. And although her back right foot drags in the beginning of the walk—and is a bit more splayed out then the left throughout the walk—by the end, it doesn't drag. I take that as a good sign.
