So, maybe I'm not quite a spring chicken anymore. But I sure feel like it. This warm weather must be shedding the years off of me. I am loving to go outside and run around. Regretfully, not quite as fast as I used to go. My human sisters joke that they can beat me now in a race. One day we'll just have to see--watch me chase after that bunny that invades our yard. I'll bet I leave a trail of dust in my wake that'll choke them as they watch me go farther and faster away from them. I haven't tried it yet though. I've been enjoying our walks around the fields too much. A lot of new smells seem to have emerged once the snow is gone and so I just enjoy sniffing while we walk the edges of the field. Sometimes, those young pups come out and run too. Though, technically, I suppose they run first and I come out after they're tired. I guess my sisters don't want me bowled over by the boys as they come running up to greet me. One time I lose my footing and they never forget it!! We have fun though. I stay closer by my human sisters though I run a little bit with the boys. I just can't keep up with them as much as I'd like anymore, but there are more interesting scents to follow than to just run around like a crazy pup!!! Plus, I get more attention and treats staying near to my sisters. Those boys have to run back for any treats, but I'm right here, ready for any food that might come my way. Hahaha. I think my sisters think I don't run with the boys because I can't. Well, maybe up to an extent that is true, but having first hand exposure to the treats, I can always smell them in their pockets, makes me not want to run with those boys. Just one of the interesting smells to keep me from straying far.
