 This was a hard one. I couldn't figure out how to get Cooper to run towards me at the 47th step. If I threw a ball for him to retrieve he came back with the ball in his mouth which wasn't as good a picture. Finally, I figured it out. I pretended to throw his ball. He ran away from me to try to get it. When he turned around I tossed the ball a few feet in front of me and he came running back to get it. "Click". Right before he got to the ball he always hops in the air!
