Avatar “Those couch potatoe dogs really will indulge in some great walking exercise. If left to their own devices they would just keep ... well, being couch potatoes. That leads to a dog being overweight and even more inclined to not want to do anything. Walk, walk, walk. It's a natural dog instinct. They will do it, but prefer you doing it with them. Good bonding, good exercise, good for everyone.” — debbie, Mar 17 2008
