Happy Furday Friday, Friends! Welcome to the latest edition of Furry Friday Feature. This month I am excited to introduce you to April and Cody!
Hi, April. Tell us a little bit about your favorite running partner.
My best bud is a 3 year old german shorthair pointer mix. He was a pound puppy and came in as a stray to be neutered where I work at a veterinary teaching hospital. I put his name on the kennel - "Burt" at the time with "dibs" next to it. He was mine.
handsome boy!
Where is your favorite place to run with your pooch?
We love going up into the woods and run off-leash. He likes to be way ahead but always comes back and waits for me.
Have you ever raced with your dog?
Yes and it was terrifying. He did great but I'm pretty sure he wanted to win the entire race!
Tell us about a running moment that made you proud.
Every single time I lace up my sneakers makes me proud. Motivation is extremely hard for me. I can play sand volleyball all day but 20 minutes of aerobic slow running is extremely difficult for me so every run is a victory!
What important running (or life) lesson can we learn from our dogs?
I look to Cody's enthusiasm as motivation for me. Always having the drive to go out and play is a very good life lesson.
Do you want to tell us anything else about you or running with your dog? Cody looks like a brown version of Ollie so I've always loved your blog! (from Lea - he DOES like like a brown Ollie!)
Any parting thoughts?
Love the blog and the dog related content - hard to find a lot of it...
GO BEAVS! :)
Two sweet faces.
Thank you so much to April and Cody for sharing their story! Leave a comment telling April and Cody both how cute they are!
