Poor thing, she was trying to hard not to walk on her feet the first time across that she literally flipped herself onto her back  By the fourth time across the room she was just doing some basic high stepping. We'll do this for a few minutes each day, hopefully by the time the snow gets here she'll be used to them!
Seeing Eddie and Jack run around in their boots makes me believe she'll work it out!
BTW, you also inspire me not to complain, but to bundle up and get her out there!!! |
Outstanding! Don't give up. I know it can be frustrating, especially when they start running from you when you grab the booties. But in the long run, they'll appreciate it. That's a good idea to practice in the house. Make sure you don't do it on a slippery floor. Do it on carpet or even take them outside on the lawn.
You'll have to post pics of the practice sessions!
