that I've been sitting here on Petgroomer.com, I've seen FIVE people outside my window jogging with their dogs.
I knew Utah had one of the healthiest populations, now I see why. I have always noticed joggers, but never counted.
One of them was disciplining his boxer (in a good way). The boxer wanted to go after another jogger's lab. He was teaching the dog to listen and obey. He stopped twice to make the dog sit and look at him, getting the dog's attention. Then he jogged on by.
There is another lady who was pregnant, I haven't seen her in a while so I think she had the baby, but she had a child in a stroller, a bully breed on one side of her and a bully breed on the other side of her. So here is pregnant mom, toddler in stroller and a bully breed on each side of her, both on Gentle Leader or Halti leaders, neither trying to get ahead of her. And when I walked by? She moved to the other side of the road...every single time. I thought that was very thoughtful (she didn't make me go around her), and responsible.
I have to say, we have a few dogs who run around pooping in people's yards, but I think our responsible owners far outweigh the bad ones. I'm quite impressed!
