Do you walk your dogs?

Everyday. The dogs have built-in clocks, they know when it's time for a walk. :rolleyes: We try to take them for a long walk out somewhere about once a week. I also play games in the yard with Jack.

I wish I could take Nicki for a walk. Her idea of a long walk is one block from home when she decides that she's tired and wants to go home. The walk home is painfully slow because she drags behind. My poor baby is old. :(

She used to get a ton of walks a day. Long walks, fun walks. But not now.

I walk them daily except in rain or really cold weather. In summer they got 2 walks per day. The daylight just isn't long enough right now for 2 walks.

In general I take all 4 together. I have a pet pocket for Ozzy, as he is the oldest, the smallest, and has an age related heart murmur. He can't do the entire route. The moment he shows signs of tiring, I scoop him up and settle him in the pouch and he enjoys that immensely! He smiles! He just loves being with the group.

Some of these cold days, I take the Lacey and Marlin for a good long brisk walk, then take Sugar and Ozzy for a short slow one around one block. I am noticing Ozzy gets cold quickly. (He only arrived here Aug 2d, so still learning things about him.)

Sugar sees no point in walks, she has to be encouraged. Once she has the harness on and is outside, she moves fine. It's just the whole idea she hates. And she will NOT walk if it was raining, until most of the puddles are dried up; another reason we call her the Diva. :rolleyes:

Yes, everyday! Rain or shine!

I walk my dogs, just not everyday. Maybe a few times a week. Otherwise I play fetch and soccer with them in the backyard.

You should see the look on people's face when they see me with all three :eek:

And in answer to the question...I do walk my dogs, just not regularly enough.

I try to get Mahalo walked daily, the others don't get as much.

I am the only one who can walk Mahalo or else she yelps, pulls and crys with excitment! so I walk her alone, and me and my sister(if bboth well) walk the other three together. Teddie & Duncan on a coupler and Buster on a lead.

I want another coupler and gentle leader(i hate them, but they are actually doing something now) so we can walk 4 at once.

Every day - and 3 times a day plus lots of visits to the back garden :D

alex and peanut love their walks. their joy is catching, peanut does the cutest happy dance and alex does a stretch and smile that almost makes it worthwhile to get the harnesses and leashes down
