Guest Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Enjoyed reading and having a little chuckle. What a lovely way to spend some time every day. Some of the simplest things in life are the most pleasurable and I'm sure your dogs will appreciate that they get proper walks, unlike some. Big bonus, it's very good for you too.

S35_2o21 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Very good. I have a 'proper' dog, a Labrador. We do a mix of 'proper' walks of 2-4 miles, depending on how much time and energy we all have, and shorter walks sometimes including a frisbee/ball/fly-ball chucker thing, and also walks where we potter along and she sniffs away. She quite enjoys all types of walks which is the main thing. My view is that the chucking thing is in the knowledge that some other dog may well 'steal' this from my dog, and just to not worry about this kind of happening. Although the frisbee did cost a few quid so that would be annoying if that got nicked but not worth getting cross over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody's Granddad Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Nice story but If your dogs are knicking other dogs toys then maybe put them on a lead. I think all dogs should be on a lead personally but not being a keen dog walker myself I guess my opinion doesn't matter. I have two small lap dogs who have there own space at home so rarely venture out anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
