I'm trying (now that the weather is nice) to tire them out to the max! That is if I hold up!

I've read that a lot of behavioral problems are caused by too much energy just held inside. So, I am going to try and give - especially Tinka - lots more walks - fast ones. She goes crazy, too when people come over. Last time I kept her on a least inside till she settled down a bit, but I think tiring them out before hand is probably a really good idea!
