Update

Just a quick blog update for ya, folks.


Romeo's balance on loose gravel and sand is continuing to improve.  He's also successfully walking backwards for quite a few steps and he often just does this on his own.  Still having trouble getting him to walk in small circles and figure-8s.  I've used treats to get him to do figure-8s, but he thinks we're playing and he starts getting silly instead.  :)  He's getting better at 3-legged doggie pilates so maybe in a few weeks we can get him to do 2-legged doggie pilates (ex. left front leg and back right leg up at the same time).  


We're working on Romeo doing stairs.  He can go down steps no problem (we prevent him from doing that as much as possible unless we're doing exercises), but it's going up steps that's a challenge for him.  He can easily clear up and down a short step at the park on the loose gravel so that's good.  We'll work him back up to regular size steps, but for now this is where we're at.  


Hope you're all enjoying the sun and beautiful weather!
