Ursen, my labrador

Paws To Run, here we come a running!

I have just launched my new venture : Paws To Run, a high energy dog exercising service in Great Ashby, Stevenage, Hertfordshire.   Sparked by my love of dogs, the outdoors and running,  I thought it would be a good idea to combine all three.  My own two dogs are no longer able to run with me and I miss the companionship.  For lack of time and/or knowledge, some "owners" do not give their pets enough exercise.  This can lead to destructive behaviour stemming from boredom.

 As an anecdote,  I increasingly notice bouncy Labradoodles straining on their leashes with exhausted looking owners trailing behind! One wonders if they have been duly informed that this new "breed" combines two of the most highly intelligent and energetic breeds!   The Royal poodle is a force to be reckoned with;  do away with the ridiculous grooming and you have a 'sportsman' of a water dog and hunter associated with a keen intelligence.  The Labrador is considered the Rolls Royce of hunting dogs, with boundless energy and an eagerness to please and to play. My Labrador required 3 full hours a day of walking, playing and running, in order to curb his energy.  My antique furniture is grateful that I spent the amount of time necessary to eliminate the destructive behaviour that Labradors are famous for (I knew of a couple who had 2 chocolate labs that actually started destroying the cement walls in the garage!).  You get the picture...
