Before I started working, I took Malone EVERY day for a long walk down the nature trail next to our house--it's approximately 1.25 miles one way). However now that I leave in the dark, and come home in the dark it's really hard to get inspired to walk in the woods in pitch black. So now, Malone gets a walk about 2 or 3 times a week with Mark in the morning after I leave, and we play with him for an hour or two in th evening. Running up & downstairs chasing Hedgie, the hedgehog, really wears him out!! And every weekend, we make a real effort not only to take him for a couple of nice long walks, but to also play frisbee and run around the yard for a couple of hours.
