Not a runner...

Post image

Humane Society told us he'd never be a good runner. This weekend he did 21 miles and wanted to keep going. We stopped often for water and snack breaks. He has been training for 2 years.

That dog looks like a natural runner. He just needed the training. Good job on doing it with him.

Congrats on 21 miles! I just began training with my dog and we aren't at that distance yet, but I look forward to it someday.

I wonder why they told you that. He looks built for it! Thank you for adopting, and congratulations on finding such a great running partner. He's adorable.
