My sister's friend is pretty unwilling to walk her tiny dog, Baby. A little chiauau who is just wonderful! She called me and asked if when I went for my walks if I would take Baby. Wow, I jumped at the chance. We went today for the first time and she is easy and so excited to get to walk. She is my new walking buddy and I am so grateful:) Really helps me get out there and keep trying. She is so fun too and I am just so in love with her already:) Oh, the lady insists on paying me too, so yep, it's a "job I love" LOL!!
 

Sure is Raven, and I realized I talked to her all the way, lol!! Well, no neighbors will mess with me because they'll figure I'm looney tunes, which is right on!! LOL!
 

That's great news for you both Denise!

A friend and I do a 40 minute daily walk which at times turns into a jog when her pooch gets excited about meeting another dog coming from the opposite direction.

The dogs make friends....the dog walkers make new friends too.

Enjoy Denise.
 
So many times I don't feel like getting my butt out of this chair to walk, but my doggies have a different idea.. They are relentless.. expecially Izzy, my Goldendoodle.. So to shut her up.. I put on my sneakers and off we go.. It's a good thing.

Meander.. that is the cutest cartoon!! AND TRUE!!! Thanks for the chuckle this morning!
 
OK, so we have a cat. I don't know of anyone that takes a cat for a walk. A cat walks when and if it wants to. Come to think of it; a cat does whatever it wants and when it wants. But, he is a good friend and does stupid things that makes us laugh. The best one is when he is chasing a laser beam from a laser pen. OMG, he's so funny.

Good for you Denise! .. glad you have a walking buddy. I have two dogs - both are useless for taking for a walk! My lab has the strength of a bull and pulls like he is one .... and little bichon gets too excited to walk straight. My fault on both counts!

then there's the cat ...

Sounds like you're having fun with this new addition to your routine Denise! And chihuahua's are such cute little lap warmers. I have two of them also, although one doesn't go for walks, he goes for rides in the back pack (where he promptly dozes off). Enjoy your walks!

LOL Bonnie;) Yes, I've tried walking big dogs that aren't leash broke and it is very rough, lol! I like my itti bitti chiauau. She walks so straight too, I am really fortunate;)
 
Thanks Debby,

I had a little one of my own that when he'd get tired, I could easily carry him;) We went on lots of walks;)

Yes, dogs can help get us out there. I am always so glad after I've done it, and once I am in a routine, I actually have with-drawels if I miss a day!!

Cats can entertain you for hours, for sure;) I bet that laser pen is fun;)
 
Actually, there is a guy in my neighborhood who DOES walk a cat on a leash. I've never seen it before, but he does it. And the cat seems to like it. It's a very strange sight and he has lots of people coming up to him to talk about it, so he meets lots of people in the neighborhood.

Glad you liked it Bettyann;) Just love that lil pup;) We didn't go yesterday since the weather was so bad. But her owner (another Betty:eek:) bought her a lil vest to wear when it's colder. We still won't go if it's pouring, I would, but can't soak the "Baby" lol!!

It's way moderate on the coast but inland, lots of freezing temps in Winter. But yes, she needs a little, extra still, as you know they don't have much hair;)
