A good reminder

With the nice weather last week, we decided to take the dogs out for a nice long walk and throw the ball around. Cecelia is very good on and off the leash. She comes over when you call her and never wanders too far. Cecelia was having a great time chasing the ball and Brendan desperately wanted to join. So we deceide to see how he would do off his leash. Since he is good in the house, we thought he would probably behave outside as well. We took his leash off and started throwing the ball around. We were having a great time.

Long story short, something scared Cecelia and she started to run. Brendan followed and the chase ensued. Brendan didn't get far, only across the street, but it was a good reminder. Brendan needs room to run. While he does well in our townhome, he deserves to be in a home with either a back yard or someone who is active and will take him outside to run around often. Brendan is still a puppy (he's only a year old), and wants to play. So if you are interested in our fun little guy, you need to keep in mind the responsibility that comes with getting a dog like Brendan. It is a big commitment, but if you are up to it, the rewards will last a lifetime.
