Growing up i have always had dogs and i have always loved raising dogs. Moving to the desert was a big change but the high desert evening is perfect for walking. I am a runner so i always run with my dogs but they usually get tired before i do. When i walk my dogs it is later in the day so it is cool enough for them to walk. if your dog has a lot of energy i have no problem running with them the whole time. If they get tired ill also carry them, i have done it a couple times already. I have treats on me to grab there attention, for really long walks i keep water on my and a bowl.
