Miles went on his first long distance adventure this weekend. While I was in DC with my family, Beth walked the Susan Komen "walk for the cure" with Miles. Although the walk itself is only 5k, it was about two miles to and from the walk itself. Thus, Miles and Beth logged about 7 miles on Sunday. Pretty impressive.
Beth reports that Miles was incredibly well behaved, although a little scared of the large crowds. He seems to have been very well received by the other walkers, and as you would expect, happy to be petted by anyone who wanted to give him attention.
I would have expected that he would have been dead tired after this event, but by the time I got home at 5:30 pm, he was back to his normal self, running around the apartment, acting very happy to see me. It is nice to come home to a couple dogs who treat you like a long lost friend after only being gone a day or so.
Bodie didn't make the long walk, but I am happy to say that he appears to be recovering very well from his surgery on Friday. He is annoyed that we won't let him roll in the grass, and his walks have been cut short, but beyond that he is in good spirits.
Both dogs are enjoying the spring weather and opportunities to hang out on the balcony. I can't wait until later this summer when we move into our new house and they have a deck and yard all their own (well, they have to share with Beth and me).
