Going for a Walk!

I absolutely love going for walks! OMG! The smells that are out there in the world! Mom and Dad have been taking us for walks the past couple of nights, and it has been awesome! Tonight it was Sadie, Lucie and me and we had so much fun! (Although I did feel bad for Sam but Mom said he couldn't afford to use up the extra calories) Mom left Sam a bowl of ice instead!

There are so many kids and dogs in our neighborhood. They come over and pet me and I just love it! Then, while we were walking, Sadie found a piece of Easter chocolate! I was so jealous! But Dad yelled, Mom took it out of her mouth and so I figured she must be in some kind of trouble. Glad it wasn't me, cuz Dad said it wasn't good for her...

The only problem is, they make us wear these things called leashes???!!! I hate it! It makes me choke and gag and I can't go where I really want to go. What is their problem? Tonight, the neighbor dog was walking behind us and growling and I couldn't go and bark back at him. Besides, it makes me choke...what is up with that? Why can't I walk where I want to walk, life just isn't fair!!

Oh yes, those pesky leashes. I was (finally) able to take my dog's off on a hike awhile back and he was in hog....er dog...heaven. He can't really be trusted off leash most of the time as he has "issues" (breed specific, NO IT'S NOT MY FAULT, I swear!)

"Hey Rusty, have you ever tried a harness? You're smaller than I am, so hopefully you wouldn't pull your Mom (or Dad) to the ground like I do! Plus no choking!" ~ Moto

Mom has a harness, she forgot all about it till you mentioned it. I tried to remind her, but you know how dog owners are...

I think next time, if I choke enough, she might let me off the leash...boy would that be a mistake...I would run further than Moto...

FOR MOTO ONLY...if you behave 3 times in a row, they think you will be good dog and you can do anything you want...of course you have to be willing to pay the price and stay on the leash for a while after that, but, dog, it is really worth it!
