Perfect running weather & how my dogs handle it.

This summer I am going to start running with a group of people who run in the mornings. Today was going to be my first day to join them. I got a message that they were not running due to wind and it might rain. Okay. I'll start tomorrow. I realized it was just misty cool weather and took my dogs out for a jog which ended up being 6.4 miles. PERFECT RUNNING WEATHER!!!!!!!!!


Memo about the dogs:  Ellie is an over weight 7 year old golden retriever and on a diet and needs to exercise... Sky could probably run forever. She has unlimited energy. Ellie loves walks and loves jogs but if she gets tired during the run, rather than slowing down.........she stops and plops wherever we are. For instance: In the mud. In a nasty puddle and today....In the middle of the street, crossing Seth Child Road.....Which is a 45 mph street and is very busy. So I pull her and sky is pulling her (I use one leash and have them hooked side-by-side) and Ellie still lays there..... People Honking giggling as they watch me try to maneuver my 80lbs golden retriever to the other side of the street. And then her collar slips off. And yes, she continues to sit there being as stubborn as always.... Once she plops 1 time its a never ending battle until we get home. She walks 10-20 steps lays down. over-and-over.

  Perfect example.
