victoria.petridou - 2009-06-13 12:59 AM How did you teach her to run with you? Mine is hyperactive and can't see it happening soon. Everytime I try she goes crazy, overexcited and runs way ahead.... frightening the ppl around us.


I never really 'taught' her how to run with me. We've just always been really bonded and she behaves so well for me, so I decided to take her one day because it looked like she wanted to come. Now she LOVES it and starts going crazy when I'm getting my running stuff on. For the first mile or two she wants to go fast (she doesn't really pull, but the leash is taught) after that she settles right into my pace and I probably wouldn't even need the leash anymore.

And one time I took her to the track when I was doing an interval workout, figuring she would just hang out. Well she ran every single lap right next to me without a leash on, even the work intervals which were FAST. I couldn't believe it, she was sooo into it!

Well I did it! I did it!!  I ran (jogged) the WHOLE race...not even stopping for water!  (I did drink water...just didn't stop)  Race report will be posted soon...but did I mention I did it!?!?  My time was right around 37:00 - - I can't believe that!  I was kinda really thrilled!!  That was only the 2nd 5K I've ever done - - and probably only the 2nd time I've gone that distance...ever!! WOO HOO!!

victoria.petridou - 2009-06-13 10:55 AM I could use some help June Bugs.
I can't update the spreadsheet. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, just can't type in


I updated it with your totals.

You might have problems if you aren't logged in.  The login is:

username: btchallenge
password: challengeforum


Oups! I was logged in with my gmail account....
Thanx for updating it for me one more time


You know...I did that too once!  I was so confused - I could see the document but couldn't change it...I was like - what the?!!?  Then I logged out..duh...  Then I saw you were having problems I was gonna say something...but for some reason I thought it wasn't that...

Good lesson to all us new users to google docs!

Weekend plans turned upside down.  Made my nephew's 8th grade graduation (very cute and he won lots of honors) but my mom took a huge fall.  Broke the right proximal humerus in 3 places.  ED doc didn't think she'd need surgery (toes and fingers crossed) but one of the fractures didn't appear to be cleanly aligned.  So will get her into the orthopod and see where it goes.   Nasty break that is tough to immobilize.  Anyhow, getting things sorted out in VT.  Not sure when I'm heading home now.  If one must find bright spots, she's pretty conked out on pain meds and I can't leave her so lots of BT time this morning.  Sick.

Congrats to the nephew!!  Did you bring your podcasts to the ceremony?

Ouch mom, I'm crossing my fingers and toes for you too in the hopes that she won't need surgery.  Poor thing, glad she's not feeling it though.

Thats awesome!!!  I wish our dog would get it.  Right now he will jog ok, pulls at times and if he sees anything he will try and bolt (sometimes right in front of me) or he barks.  Not fun.  I think I am just going to have to take him out lots and just keep working with him.

Look into the Gentle Leader. It looks like a muzzle but IS NOT. The dog can bark, open mouth etc. but what it does is if the dog goes ahead of you or starts to pull his/her head naturally pulls (not jerks) to the side. Dogs stop or slow down when this happens. They learn really without you doing much of anything, to stay by your side and not to pull.

Yup we have one of those and it does work better, but he hates it and spends the whole time trying to get it off.
