Mom says the walks I take are four times longer than the ones she takes, because I go ahead, fall behind, and make interesting detours, while she just walks in a boring old straight line. This is good because it means I have four times as much fun when we're outside! She doesn't put me on the leash any more unless we're going to a new place because I'm so good at walking on our usual path, and I love to do it by myself!
I love walking so much, but I love running more, and I learned this week that it's EVEN FUNNER, when you run, to run fast. It's great!! I hit the ground so hard Mom says it sounds like a horse galloping! It feels soooo good. My legs stretch until my paws barely touch the ground in between lopes and it feels like I'm flying. Sometimes I run like this when I see squirrels or ducks or geese; I go as fast as I can to try to chase them! Even more often, though, I just run for joy. It makes my heart and my muscles feel great and it's my favorite kind of tired to be when I'm tired from running fast.
