Why We're Here

Howdy folks.

Throughout the course of my short life I have come to find that not everyone is as thrilled with the idea of getting up off of their comfy couch to go bike or run a few miles as I am. Some motivation is required. If feeling and looking better, a sense of accomplishment, enjoying the outdoors, and saving some cash on stretchy waist bands is not enough incentive, perhaps the mournful eyes of a dissapointed dog who is weighing the pros and cons of eating your new shoes could be some incentive.

The number of overweight pets is increasing in this country which I think is a horrible injustice to the animals under our care. I have seen few things that compare to the joy of a running dog. My personal enjoyment while running is greatly increased by seeing how enthusiastic my pets are to be moving.

My goal for this blog is to encourage people to tap into this pure doggie enthusiasm by making our dogs a part of our exercise activities and lifestyle. I will post tips, links, and suggestions for getting out a moving with your dogs as well as my own personal experiences with my small pack of energetic fur babies.

Come join our pack!
