can someone loan me a dog?

1. A similar race where I live lets you walk take a shelter dog along..

try that..

[MissMillie]

7. not a bad idea

I noticed that the rules require proof of rabies vaccine... I'm sure the shelter could provide that.

2. I'd loan you one of mine

but they go get on the couch when they see me with my running shoes.

Now swimming is another matter...

8. I don't swim very well

I can keep my head above water, but to go any distance... forget it.

3. I could

but
a) you are pretty far away, and
b) it says you don't need one

[MissMillie]

5. oh I know you don't NEED one

I just thought it'd be fun...

4. you can put a leash on my 17 yo son and run him

he need the workout!!!

[MissMillie]

6. I don't know that I'd keep up w/ a 17 year old

I'm usually the one bringing up the rear at these runs.

9. just pull him back with the leash and you should be okday

both of you would get a good workout
