Walking two dogs is no fun!!!

[Brookef18]

Man it's alot of work walking two dogs, one pulls the other... Sadie is so excited she tries to nip at poor chewy to play. (He justs wants to walk!) I know Sadie is a puppy and she is learning but phew I'm exahusted from a quick walk.
And timid, shy Sadie decided to BARK and GROWL at this HUGE german sheperd thats HATES OTHER DOGS while we out!!! Good thing that dog was tied with a HUGE CHAIN! he would have ate her!

Yeah tried it once. They had me all twisted up Spent more time unwinding them then actually walking..

I know how you feel... Two wasn't bad.. but then we went to three.. lol that was an adventure and when Peyton feels he's big enough to get on the floor and walk, that will be four!! LOL Thank goodness for couplers!

I can imagine, I haven't taken Izzie out with Tobey yet until she has all her shots, but I know it wont be fun. When I lived with my best friend she got a cocker spaniel and it was a mess trying to walk the him and Tobey

I've got walking 4 down pat. It was that 5th one that I dogsat that really tangled things up. I think they get used to walking with each other after awhile though. I love walking my four especially when the weather is nice.

I agree, the starting part is a bit crazy but once we all figure it out it's great fun, I walk my 3 on a regular basis. good luck and keep those pups walking!!

I agree, I use to walk my great dane and pug together all the time. One would not walk if the other was not w/him!

Oh gosh Brooke, I hear ya girl! I know EXACTLY how you feel! I tried that ONE TIME and said NOOOOO WAY, lol. No way in HECK could I walk BOTH of my babies by myself One would probably end up getting away from me or either they'd choke to death from getting all tangled and caught up in the leashes

ANY time we go walking, my hubby takes one baby and I take one. Usually he has Stedman and I have Tatum because Tatum is such a mommy's girl and always has to be with me Sometimes we trick her though and switch them around when their not looking so that I can get to walk my boy

One thing you could maybe try though, is using a Leash Coupler. Have you ever tried one of those before? That way, you can walk 2 dogs with one leash I have one for my babies and I will probably start using it again after Tatum has her LP surgery and is all better. I don't like using it now when her little knees are messed up because Stedman pulls on her and sometimes makes her slide around lol. They've just got to get used to using it more

I walk two all the time, too. If I got the coupler, I can picture Betty running and poor Juju flying through the air! LOL!
