Eckel took first within the girl class whilst she caught as much as her doggy.

When Eckel heard that, she thought, “Game on.” Then, she and the “little canine” controlled to earn the pinnacle spots for both classes. Typically, the duo does 10- to 20- mile trekking treks once they go out, especially in winter, and every now and then, do longer 20- to twenty-five-mile days. Sometimes they go out with friends and different dogs. Other days, they just cross on an adventure together.
