Rehabbing Rainey!

Auntie and Elena took Rainey to Mega-Dogs in Woodinville on several occasions to try and get her to use her leg after her crazy tendon-slicing-in-a-splint-for-almost-four-weeks injury by making her use it in the water first. (Check out a healthy Rainey competing in agility at Mega-Dogs June 17, June 24 and July 1, if you're in the area.)

Elena became an old hand at removing the cover from the pool. By the last trip she was yelling out instructions while Auntie did all the work!

Well, she helped at the beginning of the swim time so she could get in the pool faster and then oversaw the closing of the pool. I see management in the making!

So, who is getting the most swimming practice out of this session? Rainey or Elena? (Luckily it turned out to be Rainey and she is fully recovered from her freak injury.) But, Elena got a special shower each time Rainey swam by.

At the end of each session Rainey was given her freedom (to rest) and Elena had free reign to practice some of her best moves!
