Working Out With a Pup
I should be healthier now than I was before having two dogs but it's actually the complete opposite. I used to be able to go straight from work to the gym and then home for dinner, relaxation and bed. Now, I have to rush out of the office to take the boys outside, feed them and then play with them. By the time all of this happens, I barely have enough time to eat something decent and enjoy quiet time. I'm not much of a runner. In fact, I have always had problems with my knees so that impact hurt a lot. Nonetheless, I did try to run with the boys two times. The first time was great! The weather was great, the boys were keeping pace with me and we were all happy. Unfortunately, Simba thought it would be appropriate to run in front of me and then suddenly stop TO SCRATCH HIMSELF. I immediately flew over him and landed on my wrist and knee with the wind knocked out of me. I looked up to see that they both continued to run and Simba gave me a look of irritation as though he were saying, "really? you're taking a break already?". The second time we ran around the block but soon I realized that Buddha was dragging me. When he gets started he has a hard time slowing down. It's his husky instinct that kicks in and all he wants to do is go for the gold! So what's a dog owner to do??
