| Mia walked 7.3 kilometers I have to tell you, Mia is one tough little trooper!! We went camping 2 weekends ago at Fundy National Park. There are lots of beautiful hiking trails there, varying in difficulty from a 1 to a 4 being the most difficult. My husband and I, along with Mia, started our hike at a level 2 trail. It wasn't a long trail, but by mistake, we branched onto a level 3 trail. My goodness, we went through mud, water, rocks, etc. We had to carry Mia when we went through those spots, but as soon as we picked her up, she wanted down. She walked the whole 7.3 kilometers (2 hours) (approx. 4.5 miles). I'm glad we had lots of water!! As soon as we would pick her up to go over these hurdles, she wanted down so she could walk on her own. She loved every minute of it. It was nice too because she was off leash, she would just follow my husband (and I would follow her). As soon as we got back to the trailer, she was out like a light. I took lots of pictures, I'll try to post them in a bit if I can figure out the resizing...

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Wow - that's a long way - she WAS a trooper ...I bet she loved every second of it and it's so cute when they crash and burn - they're like little kids - play hard - sleep hard. |

| wow! That was a long walk! I've been trying to build up Sydney's stamina b/c we are doing a benefit walk for Because You Care (a local no-kill animal rescue) and it will be about 2 hours. Of course if I have to carry her, at least she isn't heavy |

| It's nice to know that these little guys can actually go for that long, with short rests in between. I love to go for walks, genreally about an hour long when the weather is nice, and I was afraid that maybe Deegan wouldn't be able to make it. I will have to start training him for stamina once he gets his third set of shots.
