I hope everyone is having a fantastic long weekend and whether you're having a BBQ or doing something outdoors- don't forget to take along your furry friends as long as they stay cool and have lots of water :-) Socialization and exercise are key elemets to a well behaved dog....

Some of you may know that I like to run. I run for fun but secretly, I'm planning on running my first marathon next year. Currently, I run on a tread mill because it's air-conditioned in my gym and I can see exactly how far I'm running- although the scenery isn't that nice. Also, because I work outside- it's wonderful not to have to wear sun screen. I think I'm reaching that point though where I must take my running out onto the streets. Right now, I'm at 9 min. a mile but I'm working my way towards 8. This in comparison to other runners here is easy. In a place where Olympic athletes train, it definetly keeps you motivated. In Florida I used to run with Elvis at night but during the day here, it gets too hot. We go on hikes, walks, play ball and of course their favorite activity- chasing away the bunny rabbits and prarie dogs.
Next Sunday I leave for L.A. and have lots to do to prepare for my trip. Be safe, have fun and don't forget the many men, women and dogs who are fighting for us over in Iraq...
All my best,
Jennifer
