Inside the house, Roxy always waits for me then follows-no matter how much in a hurry she is. In the mornings, when we first get up, she waits till I start down the stairs then she is nipping my heals trying to get me to the door a little faster. Outside, on her leash, all I can say is thank God she isn't a Great Dane!. She is on her 2 hind legs pulling for all she's worth to make me go faster. Go figure.
