My Higgins is 6.5 lbs of MUSCLE! He has always been SUPER active and loves to play fetch and frisbee and just RUN outside. We have always encouraged this so he would get tired out and his old parents could get a little rest. He doesn't seem to tire......LOL
A big benefit is that he has built strong muscles and these help protect him from injury. Good musculature will help support those delicate joints. Of course there are many other benefts, too -- cardio, good lungs, weight control, and just plain FUN for all of us.
Gotta get some new pictures of him up......will try and do that today..... |
