The mere mention of the word “walk” will get the attention of most dogs. Our dog will barely be able to contain herself at the merest suggestion that there might be a “walk” in the future. Unfortunately, that energy quickly evaporates and the animal that I could barely keep up with moments before has changed into some sort of apathetic creature that I have to constantly engage to keep her moving.
Am I alone in this? Is it because we are both getting older? I have no idea.
