Lucy Loo is my reminder of my biggest reason for becoming a Quitter. When I smoke, I don't have the energy to walk her as quickly as she needs to burn off energy I get out of breath way too easily and have only been able to walk her at most about a mile every day. I would like to work up to two miles and then four miles. Terriers are very energetic breeds with strong prey drives, so they need to burn off lots of energy. Lucy never complains, though. When we can't walk, like today, when it's 8 degrees outside, we'll play lots of games of chase and get the squeaky toy and bring it back to Mamusha (Polish for Mom). That tires her out pretty quickly.

Since she's a small dog, her life span will be a bit longer than larger breed animals. So, she'll live to a good 14 yrs. I'd like to be around long enough to see her through all those years. You know?

Peace all. Be good, and do something kind for yourselves today. :)

Because Chris said so.
