Going for a Walk

There is nothing better than going for a walk on a brisk winter day. I not only do it to keep myself fit and trim, but it also gives Mom and Dad a little exercise. I usually get four or five walks in a day, and every walk must involve a ball.

I like to chase the ball and sometimes I like to carry the ball. I keep Mom and Dad on their toes because I randomly drop the ball on our walks. If they’re not paying attention, it means I get a longer walk because they have to backtrack to find the ball. It’s really my evil plan so they get more steps in a day.

And a walk wouldn’t be complete without a trip to the backyard so I can tear up a few leaves or sticks. Then it’s inside for a few treats, a nap, and repeat.

Have a happy and healthy new year!
