This is ...Robin, thanks for bringing this to light! This is sooo true. I can't tell you how many people I know who have a fenced yard or invisible fence and say they don't have to walk their dog anymore. Just like you said, the yard becomes predictable, and they get bored easily. Dogs are "migratory" creatures too in the ancient sense. Wolves must walk and hunt for their food and water and dogs retain that ancient drive. Like you said, owners get their exercise too, meet other dogs & dog owners and clear your head. I walk Cosmo just about every day. We go at least two miles and some days if I have enough time I go three or four. It's funny though, he'd much rather go out in the rain than the heat! He's a beagle and tends to put on weight quickly if we don't watch it. This summer, any day or night much over 75 degrees, he wouldn't budge much. I'm so thankful for the cooler weather! Also congrats on your weight loss, thats awesome! I would loose from all my walking if I still didn't eat so much! ;b<br />Have a great week everyone!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06279040381509033619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3941609349878891492.post-86323655274299255062009-09-20T11:11:54.466-07:002009-09-20T11:11:54.466-07:00Altered Beauty, hope you and Buddy had fun!!
