Our pals over at Kol's Notes have come up with a fitness challenge to get us into shape for swimsuit season. Mom and I are aren't very active, but decided we'd try it this year. If we complete the challenges, we will be entered in a drawing to win some prizes!
I love prizes! But...What do you mean I have to walk? I thought humans were here to carry us! Mom was told that carrying me gives her exercise! Well, if I have to exercise, can I have more treats?
That's my reason to join K9 Kamp: to exercise enough to burn enough calories for extra treats! Deal?
Mom is in between sizes right now, her "fat" clothes are too loose and her "skinny" clothes are too tight. I think her goal should be to fit the "skinny" clothes, but I won't hold my breath! BOL!!!
Uh-Oh! Mom says I could stand to lose half a pound! Does that mean no extra treats? I may have to revolt! She even expects me to wear shoes! She says they are so I can walk without burning my paws. Ya'll know I like my paws nekkid! Hmmm........shoes, no extra treats, exercise. This isn't sounding fun to me. Mom, you have to promise me a pretty cookie when it's over or I will sit and refuse to walk! Then Mom will have to carry me! BOL!!!
Are any of you being persuaded (forced) into more exercise?
We did it last year, and are doing it again this year! :)
ReplyDeleteHigh Paw Tiki and crew! Since ya'll all have Husky in you, you know about the heat! Do you have any tricks for staying cool on a walk? What about your paws, how do you protect them?

Yay Pepper! You can do it! When it's super duper hot, we use Musher's wax on our paws, but I dunno if that's enough where you live! I'm so glad your joining us for K9 Kamp!
ReplyDeleteHi Kolchak! Thank you! The wax would melt off faster than it'd take to leave the driveway, if I haven't licked off first. BOL!! I have heard it is great for dogs who wear it instead of eat it. BOL!!

I walk Mom on leash every single day. BOL We have the Mushers for the ice and snow, but have not had to use it since we had a mild winter last year. I have the same problem as you, though, I would lick it right off.
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you for taking part in K9 Kamp. I know you can do it! Just break up the walks into smaller increments and do not try to do them all at once. Wake Mom up extra early each day to do the first walk before the pavement gets too hot.

Hi Romeo!! BOL!! It is hard enough to wake Mom up as it is. I bet you would lick it off, knowing you! BOL!!
