Day 9!

Today was a little different and tomorrow will be too! We started slightly late at 9:30 with Joe Mori followed by Orwell Dickman. Both did great! We had a senior seminar at 11 am, and then I had a game to prepare for, so we could only get in two walks today. However, we did end up getting 3 hours of work in today. After the seminar, we did some research and reviewed our videos for our final video. I got around 5,000 steps today, which would be more if I were allowed to wear my watch during my game. But it was a great day! See you tomorrow!

Weekly Reflection 1!

  This week was so much fun! We have gotten to walk a lot of the on-campus and off-campus dogs, who are all very cute and nice! We have learned so much about each of the dog’s personalities and if they can be on or off-leash, if they can be around other dogs, if they know their way around campus, or if they are food motivated. This week, the dog that impressed me the most, from his cuteness to his ability to walk with us and being a good dog all the time, was Stanley. Stanley was always so excited to come outside with us and walk around, stopping for smells a lot. He comes to the door willingly and allows us to put on his leash for our walks. I loved what we were doing. I have always had a passion for animals and being able to spend almost every waking moment with them has been so nice, especially because I get to be at Proctor while I am doing it. We are also getting so much exercise, which is so nice, and it’s built into the project. This week we need to find a way to spread out the

Day 8!

 Today we woke up at 8:30 and began this beautiful 80-degree day with Mac Kidder at 9. We then took Cricket and Fleur Fairbrother for a walk, and they are two of the best dogs I think I have ever walked. Fleur chases balls and can be off-leash confidently, and Cricket is sweet and old and never pulls on the leash. They are truly perfect dogs. We then walked Stanley, who is always a delight, followed by Comet Will. We motivated Comet with training treats today and he was AMAZING. He walked right next to us the whole way! Small steps! At 4:30, right before our final walk of the day, I got myself knee-deep into a game of Catan with Saul and Jasper, but Jaime was a champ and took Mindy and Rocky Wamaru on her own, so I could focus on winning. (Unfortunately, I still got absolutely demolished by Jasper) We worked for 5.5 hours today!

Day 2!

 Today was almost exactly like yesterday! We have established our routine, working in an iced coffee from Jake's every now and then. We woke up at 8:30 and began our first walk with Joe Mori at 9. Then we had Orwell Dickman, who we allowed to frolic wherever he liked. After him, we walked Stanley Grotnes and Radley Griffin-Brown, who walked like old buddies and were perfect together. In the afternoon we walked Mack Kidder (who is named after Charlie McAvoy and is also perfect), and the Summer's dogs. We walked over 21,000 steps, 9.36 miles according to my Fitbit, I don't know how accurate it really is but I like to believe it's giving me good information. We worked on our project in some form for 5.5 hours today. Overall a good day and I can't wait for tomorrow!
