I
adopted a dog last week and boy, I never knew how much of a sloth I had become. I live in a condo in an urban area, so I don't have the luxury of letting my dog run outside in a yard whenever she wants. I've got to strap on a leash and walk her to the nearest park... about 4 times a day. And to tell the truth, I'm enjoying it (even though she woke me up at 2 AM to go potty). I love her. And btw, I've lost 5 lbs since I got her. Now there's a bonus I hadn't expected.

 | Posted Sep 19th, 2008 at 7:18AM Keep up the great work! My dog is going to be 10 in January and I to, live in a area where I have to put a leash on everytime I take her out. After so many years now of doing so, when I do open the door for her to run she waits looks at me with a face of "are you ready or what?".. Keep the faith! Your dog will love you the more and more you spend time with it. Congrats on the 5lbs as well! I would also suggest a doggie day care if you have that as an option. +3 nods |
