Running the Mooses

Running the Mooses One of the best things you can do for keeping your family fit and healthy is to incorporate exercise that’s ideally more thrilling for all than shoving toothpicks up your nose. The question becomes, however…what works best?

In my family, enter the mooses!

You see, a few months ago we adopted two rescue doggies - a white rocket husky named Grif, and a Malamoose named Khan (a malamute/collie cross who dwarfs your typical run-of-the-mill moose). Both are young healthy vibrant rescue dogs, and both doggies *adore* running.

Well! We have a nearby fenced in baseball diamond in our nearby fenced in park. So….every morning, I hitch up the mooses to their leads and jog them to this area and let ‘em go!

Talk about whoosh - the doggies are like blinding flashes of lightning as they bound every which way. And because my kids and I had jogged to the park as well, we all get in our exercise too.

That’s not the only way in which we include the mooses in our activities - we also moose-wrestle and run them up and the down the streets as well (Iditarod, anyone? :) ). It really helps keep my family on their toes!

Enjoy,

Barbara Ling
