Hello,
my husband, my standard and I have started a running routine 3 days a week. We're up to 4 miles and we really love doing it and hope to increase our mileage gradually. Our pup will be a year old in August and we just love the dog she is becoming. She sees me putting on my running shoes and she gets so excited. She even stands perfectly still in front of me so I can put her vest and harness on! Adorable!
We're thinking of eventually adding to the family but more along the lines of a toy poodle. Mostly because we think it would be fun for all of us but also because as much as I love my standard I don't think I could juggle grooming two big puppies.
However, we're trying to do everything right--i.e. research etc. We intend to continue our active lifestyle but we want to know if a toy will fit into it?
Can you go on a long-distance run with a toy poodle? I don't want to push a dog in a carriage. It's fine for those who are comfortable with it but I am not.
So I if there are some opinions out there I'd be glad to hear them. Although keep in mind I'm super nerdy so medical issues that have some reference to back them up are always appreciated
