Recently got a pedometer. It's still too hot to walk outside, so I walk a mile inside twice a day. I noticed my dog, which it's too hot to walk , seems a little interested in following me. I took out the laser pen and he runs after the red dot. He tires out after about a half mile. He is a golden with alot of hair, and we keep the house at 80o , so he just gets too hot. But still something is better than nothing for both him and me. And it's really fun!!!
