George Bernard Shaw said "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing." We wanted dogs to help us continue to play. In the process we have learned some invaluable lessons. (The Dog Whisperer) Ceasar Milan points out that there are three basic needs that dog have. We found that Nicholas and I hve the same needs. First, to be exercised. Second, to have discipline, and guideline's. Third to recieve affection. So we take the dogs out for a wilderness hike where we can all get out and play, we come home and feed them, and this is the after math.
