How many of you run with a dog? My doberman joins me on ever mile I run that isn't a race. It's his favorite thing to do with me and he's gotten to be very good on or off leash. He's only ever off leash on the most unpopulated trail systems (like the Cumberland trail segments in the Chattanooga area) where I'm usually surprised to come across one set of hikers in 10-20 miles of trail. If there's the likelyhood of more people, he's on leash at heel. I see runners all the time without dogs, and know a lot of folk that have dogs and don't run with them. I just wondered what percentile I'm in on that score. I prefer my canine companion to people as a running buddy any day of the week.
