Keeping Fido Happy and Fit - It's easy just do it!

Daisy on our walk

It is the highlight of their day!  When I walk my dogs or go running with them they get so excited.  I try and walk or run with them everyday.  Rarely do I miss a day.  I wish everyone had the same passion about walking their dogs.  Imagine if you were a dog and never got to leave your house.  You miss out on all those new smells that are outside of your yard.  Dogs love to sniff and smell everything out there in the world.  Keeping them confined to your yard (even if it is a big yard) is not the same.  I see so many dogs in my neighborhood that NEVER get outside of their yard.  I feel bad for them as I walk by with my pack of dogs.  Not only do your dogs get exercise on a walk but you will gain benefits from walking too.  Many people say they are too busy to do this.  That is a BIG excuse.  I am very busy however I force myself to take them out and once I see them enjoying the walk it is well worth it.  Don’t talk yourself out of it just do it.    Make it become a daily routine. Some days I have to be to work at 5am so walking my dogs requires me to get up at 3:15.  Yes its hard but I do it because I love my dogs. I love seeing them full of excitement to go for the walk.  It only has to be 20-30 minutes out of your day.  Just do it!
