The Daizy Gym

Hello Again,

I would like to now pay homage to my newer friend and life companion, Daizy Puppers. Today I had some revelations about this part of my path. Getting grounded and actually becoming Outdoor Girl with baddass dog!

Daizy and I have started walking serious now. I have walked her plenty around the small block trying to work on verbal and leash cues. Now we are going much further on a harder course. I am not sure of the distance, but it starts with some hardcore downhill Jonny says is like 100 or so degrees. I work out my arms controlling Daizy's speed during this part. Then we walk across a flat area where some of Daizy's dog friends live. I haven't met the owners so I don't know their names but they like to play through the fence whenever Daizy comes by. Then we turn again and up a slightly less steep hill to the neighborhood park which is actually directly behind out house. We walk the perimeter of the park and then have a short rest in the shade. Daizy isn't super patient with this but understands that Mom needs a rest and some water. We like to visit with any brave humans that speak to us. Daizy is learning to be polite as not to scare others with her dangerous appearance!
By the time we get home I have had a full workout finished off with the stair stepper back up the 100 degree hill. Its so much more doable with a dog that's bred for pulling up in front! Daizy and I both like to come back into the nice cool house have a drink and relax with some smooth jazz!
