Welcome to the first of the new Dog Blog Challenge posts! Like I mentioned last week, to try to keep these more interesting, I’m going to only do the posts once per week (but rest assured, we’re getting our daily walks in). Now that we’re on Year 2, we’re still doing our daily 1+ mile walks. We’ve added a second component, which is to average two miles per day. We did well on Week 1 – we got plenty of extra miles in, to save up for when the weather turns cold and the last thing we want to do is spend even one extra minute outside.

“Dogs are our link to paradise. They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring – it was peace.”
