[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 605577, member: 11791"] Jody... with your disability? there's still good ways to exercise that lab, and it does NOT involve the dog park (I'd never go to a dog park, seen too many irresponsible owners there, no end of problem dogs...) She's a LAB. Which means she will likely LOVE to play fetch. Doggie balls are soft on the teeth, but so are ice cream pail lids (throw like a Frisbee). If you can throw at all, she'll run and run and run. In a small back yard, you could also set up some basic dog agility equipment, especially the tunnels and scramble board (up and down)... takes lots of mental and physical energy. But... labs don't need miles of walking. They want WORK. Make her THINK. [/QUOTE]
