Let me jump on the bandwagon. I, like everyone else, felt guilty for leaving my dog alone all day and the dog walker just wasn't getting the job done in terms of keeping him fit and healthy. We were introduced to Running Paws through another client who was walking his dog and are happy he recommended them. My dog LOVES his daily run with Running Paws and now he gets to run with that dog! He would run three times a day if he could. He is definitely in better shape. If there is a downside it is that he now has more energy than ever before! Running seems to get him revved up for more. Fortunately, the runners high only lasts a few minutes, then he is ready for a good long nap. We took him to a park in Westport, CT one time where dogs are allowed to run freely off leash and he was in heaven. He had all of the other dogs chasing after him, running in circles and doubling back. They were tumbling over each other. The other dog owners wanted us to bring him back every day. Unfortunately, city life doesn't offer that freedom. I believe Running Paws is the next best thing. We are fortunate to have such a great group of people doing what we cannot do -- exercising our dog.

Pros: Good way to keep your dog in shape. Helps keep your dog from wanting to be naughty when you're gone!

Cons: None
