Finally! A use for those annoying, spandex clad losers bobbing around town so jovially...have *them* run your dog while you enjoy that much deserved glass of wine or pint of beer. It was destiny that this should happen. Fate that these self-righteous street bounders should come to take on the task of getting your furry, four-legged friend their own dose of sustained cardio. Whether to run off that excess energy in your young pup, or to maintain healthy heart, lungs, and physique in your full-grown baby-angel...look no further... Will keep your doggy between a trot or a run, depending on their existing fitness, for the entire outing, listening to breathing and noticing any visual cues to be sure the cardio work is good but not too much. Will consider double outings with a good pup. Good quality cardio, from 12 minutes per mile (for the fella that just needs to trot a bit) down to 6 minutes per mile for the dog looking for the ultimate summer dog bod.
