Exercise Dogs?

I recently started jogging with the dogs. I waited until Sumo was at least 18 months (Chibi is already 2.5 yrs).

Chibi used to really enjoy the "running" aspect of the daily exercise, but now she's settled into trotting along behind JUST fast enough to keep the tension off the leash. Sumo (of course) runs ahead and still hasn't figured out the leash will pull him back when he gets too far ahead.

Even if I pick up the pace to "run" vs. "jog", Chibi isn't going any faster. She loves being outside and will trot as long as we stay out there...but "fast" isn't on her agenda anymore.

I'm not a runner (nor do I really enjoy jogging either), but I think Chibi is starting to take after her owner :)
