MY NEW EXERCISE REGIME...
If you want to get the blood pumping several times a day just get an English Springer puppy who has an unusual chewing fetish. Leave things lying around and when he grabs them...which he will...chase him around and around and around the sofa. Lunge back and forth while trying to fake him out. If you want to add variety, have your children help you by placing obstacles. Kiddie strollers work well especially if you have more than one but don't use a pink ride on pony. Puppies can jump you know. Do this five or more times a day and you'll be on your way to a slimmer and trimmer you.
And now I need to catch my breath and take a shower...

Wow...maybe after I have this baby I'll start your routine! It sounds so...so...real.
:-)
Yeah, he's chewed everything you could think of. He likes pencils, markers, dollhouse furniture, shoes, socks, plastic Happy Meal toys, stuffed animals, vitamin bottles, books, and even church bulletins!
How are you doing Karen?
Not sure if that would be good for my heart, whenver I have to chase the dog I get ticked off at her and my blood pressure rises! (Not that I couldn't use the excercise ;)) Do you plan on bird hunting with him? 'Gun Dog' is a good book for training, our German Shorthair (also a bird dog) follows the voice and hand commands for 'come, sit,and stay' (of course she will often test her boundaries, but she knows the consequences that follow.)
On a gross note, the ONE night we let her sleep in our room I woke up to her gagging. She threw up what looked like a pile of worms coated in green goo. (I know, sick!) She actually had swallowed one of my husbands socks, whole! She's so weird!
Yeah, that is gross Roberta, but I wouldn't put it past my puppy either. Hopefully someday in about five years (ha, ha) we can let Pilot sleep in our room.
Oh Roberta...GROSS. I am so nauseated right now (that answers your question as well, Meredith) that reading that didn't help. I will admit that you did give a warning a few words beforehand, but my daring mind decided to go ahead and read. Mercy.
Blessings, Meredith, as you deal with your puppy issues. I don't envy you..but puppies are really sweet when they're not being naughty!
It seems his only objective at the beginning of the day is to search for things to chew...besides his chew toys. I'm just now, at this very moment, catching my breath from getting a ministry newsletter out of his mouth. My husband said this morning that it's fun for him to call home and see what mischief the dog has gotten into. But that dog was lucky Daddy wasn't home yesterday when he got took the church bulletin out of his Bible and then started licking his Bible!
Hang in there Meredith, Puppies do grow out of the chew stage. Well at least our doggy did.
Wow, Roberta, that is quite a green-goo story:)
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAahahahhaha...
I did the same thing, only it was w/ a Golden Retriever...
