So if anyone sees a redheaded woman being dragged down the street by a redheaded dog, don't stare. It is only I. Carole >> Hi Carole. Walking my black Lab is a kick...about 4X weekly. Fortunately, Win is 13 years old TODAY, matter of fact, and he walks as slowly as I do. I carry a brown paper sack and cardboard scoopers in one hand and the leash in the other. Haven't figured out just how to manage a cane at the same time. He helps me climb the inclines, and pretends he also needs to stop and rest when I do. I did fall one time, turned my ankle on a pebble in the street when not looking where I was going, and felt absolutely ridiculous....not so much for falling, but the getting up again. If your flaky setter is a youngster, put the headset on him! It could be distracting enough to slow him down. Love to you, Clare
