Yesterday a great start, Lucy (the dog) and I walked off to the woods for a nice hours brisk walk, then later to the pet shop with the children to get her some treats clocked 14000 steps ..yipee

Today, attempt 1 We crossed the road, she did her business. head down, looking very forlorn, I couldn't get her to move. Attempt 2 after lunch , set off again, desperate to get my steps in. We got a little further , up to the entrance to the woods. Head down, eyes up, there was now way she was going any further...

She's meant to be helping me with this journey, not hindering me

Any tips from dog owners, would be much appreciated.

Tempted to try again , but might just leave her and get on my exercise bike ..

Have you tried food treats, making yourself more interesting than home? I mean a silly high-pitched excited voice and running with the treat/squeaky toy, to get her attention.

Does she get to run off the lead? Walks with rabbits? Taking the children?

It's all worth a try

Oh yes she runs off chasing squirrels, and the children

Will find a squeaky toy, and give it a try.. thank you
