Get a workout by running free with your dog
This writer lives in a wonderful range: almost exactly halfway between the city of Salt Lake and the wild foothills and mountains that surround it. Dogs in the city are walked sedately, on a leash, along the concrete surfaces. In the wilderness of the foothills, they often run free. This gives canines a heart-thumping workout as they scramble up the trails of the resorts, along with their human companions.
