My walking buddies

These are the reason I do over 10 miles a day. They are my absolute best friends!

Lucy is the brindle greyhound, she's 7 and I adopted her age 2. Katy is the blonde saluki x whippet. She's 4 and an absolute ratbag but I wouldn't change her for the world! I adopted her age 12 weeks. Bobby is the grey greyhound, he's 2. Adopted him age 16 weeks from the same rescue as Katy after he was dumped outside their gate.

We do lots of walking, and this is our favourite. Oldshoremore Beach near where I live. It's around 6 miles in total.

Stunning - dogs and scenery! Have all 3 of them spotted something fluffy with pointy ears just out of our sight?

Hi Osiris,

That looks stunning may favourite walks are on the beach and you completely forget you are doing exercise with such breath-taking scenery to keep your attention :-)

Lovely picture. I have a big brindle Bull-Lurcher and his very short friend a Jack Russell x (she was adopted from a lost dog's home, and he came as a pup from a local vets)....can't think how you manage 3 flexi-leads, we get in a tangle just the two! They are the best exercise machines indeed!

Oh you are so lucky with a beautiful beach to walk on, I can fully understand you saying they are your best friends I talk to my two all the time and tell them things I don't tell my husband cause I know they won't grass me up! Some people are so cruel and disregard pets when they get fed up of them but they are the ones missing out dogs take you at face value you show them love and they give it back in bucket loads.

Beautiful pic and great dogs :). I have a Springer Spaniel and a Springer x Lab and we walk in the forest or by the coast every day too. More shingle than sand round here but still love the sound of the waves and the fresh sea air. Enjoy :)
