Doesn't Harley have LP? If so, I caution with too much Long distance running. Also I would be jogging with him on grass not pavement. Better yet wait until warm weather comes, and you both can run in the ocean!.

Also pacing, you want Harley to be at a trot, not a "run". Means that depending on how big/tall Harley is, that might only mean a slow jog for you. Also you can start with calveletti training, very good for building up all muscles in legs.

I got PVC piping, made about a dozen 3ft lengths, you place on the ground, start out the spacing at the height your dog is at the withers ' for eg" if dog is 9" tall the spacing is 9". Walk dog through the piping. Idea is the dog doesn't touch the piping, and must complete the full circuit. Once dog does this well, trot through that spacing. Then, add another inch to spacing, start at walk, progress to trot. Keep adding inches, until you find the spacing that the dog can't successfully complete at a trot. This will teach your dog to expand their gait, to their natural maximum, and for you to see and find out a good pace for your dog. If you do this daily, do about 12 repetitions, reward for good performance; then go off on your regular walk.
