Bob is a power walker. Sophie an ambler. Today she is not only slow but inquisitive. Butterflies watched, flowers sniffed, grass verges explored. Something invisible pounced on. After half an hour we've gone four hundred yards. One of those canine " I will not be hurried ! " days.
Finally, she's loaded in the back of the car and driven off to collect her big brother from the lake. En route we stop at the bakers. Sophie gets meringue. She thanks the bakers wife - loudly.
An exasperated owner can't help but believe that this song ( playing on Radio Nostalgie this morning ) sums up Sophie's attitude to life, or at least that part of it covered by her walks. The Peggy Wood of the dog world.

The different approaches to exercise may account for Sophie's greater tendency to curviness?
It's quite remarkable to me how brother and sister can be so different. I shouldn't be surprised, but I am.
Todd's theme song would be, Afro Circus/ I Like To Move It, from Madagascar 3 .... :-)

Bob is power walking? Are you sure he isn't Prancercizing?
A girl won't be hurried, even when there's meringue on the horizon......
