| Yes, in these days of over indulgence, it is not | | | | difficult to keep slim because they need a lot of |
| strange to find both owner and pet slightly | | | | running space and if you happened to live in an |
| overweight. In fact if you were to be observant | | | | apartment, the poor dog just can't get enough of |
| enough, you will see that the pet dog is a replica | | | | exercises. Allowing the pet to roam outside on its |
| of the owner; that is if one has a slim body, the | | | | own is not a solution as you might not find them |
| other will also have a slim body. Likewise, when | | | | coming back to your doors again. If you have |
| one is over weight, the other will be over weight | | | | kids, bring them along as it will be real fun as well |
| as well! No surprise here, it is happening all over | | | | as a healthy dose of exercise for all. Better still, |
| the world, even in China. So what can we do | | | | get someone to video tape the fun and post it to |

| beach front if one is available, or even at the local | | | | Perhaps tethered one of them and let the other |
| skating rink if they allowed you. In this way, you | | | | chase after it? Maybe cats should also get a bite |
| could out run your dog anytime and both of you | | | | of the exercise, or other creatures that you so |
| will get plenty of workout. It is estimated if you | | | | happen to fancy. All things being said, you will |

| away 350 calories. Your dog will probably burn | | | | would just put on those skates and bring along |
| less, but after the work out, both of you can | | | | the troop. Maybe that could be a start of a mini |
| continue to enjoy a hearty meal again, without | | | | circus in town! |
| having to break your conscience. Pet dogs are | | | | |
