Oh what a difference a dog can make

It was a year ago today that my husband and I welcomed Bailey into our lives. We debated for quite a long time whether or not we should get a dog. We are both very busy in our careers and with our own fitness so we weren't sure how we would adapt to this added responsibility.

Well it's been great. Bailey is a little trail dog and he runs with me everywhere. Since I live in North Vancouver, BC I spend most of my time running the local trails and now I have a buddy to run with all the time.

They say that people who own dogs are much healthier. Well they do need to be walked on a daily basis and they require alot of lovin, which is no problem. In return Bailey makes me laugh with all his quirky little habits. Laughing is good for the soul and the more we laugh the better.

If you do not own a dog you probably think I am alittle over the top writting about my dog. If you own a dog then will you automatically understand how a little furry creature can really enhance your life. I've only lost one pair of slippers so that's not so bad.
