Our dog Dixie is a bundle of energy. We burn off excess energy each night with a brisk bike ride / run around our Siesta Key neighborhood. The scenery is awesome and the route is normally somewhere between 1 and 2 miles. Just enough to get the heart rate up (Dixie) and break a little sweat (me). When we started we had to put her in a choke collar to prevent her chasing squirrels and other dogs along the way. Dixie is now very diciplined in her running and rarely veers off course. The pace is typically a trot, but when she’s feeling especially perky I can get Dixie to gallop for a few hundred yards. Good times.
