This girl has boundless energy! That really is the biggest road block for her is that she is so energetic and has a very small attention span. I am working on getting her to focus for longer periods of time and luckily she will calm down a bit with age. That is one of the perks of a Newfoundland.
Today, just to tucker her out, I took her on a short bike ride. She trotted next to the bike nicely and seemed to enjoy it. I kept it short, just up and down the driveway, because she is still a little young for hard exercise. We don't want to give her tender joints. But the little jog was enough to get her calmed down for a time and we had a few good workouts.
Tomorrow we are starting on long line work and expecting more of her than ever. I am confident she will do fine, with practice.
