Some years ago I wrote a silly little comedy 'skit' about a Jack Russell who never got enough exercise, and the tricks he used to play to ensure he did. I'll see if I can find it...
You are so right. Many humans don't get much exercise either. I walk to see the cat down my lane, twice a day. Neighbours congratulate me as if I were going on an Everest expedition! They make me smile. It's only quarter of a mile away! Altogether that is only walking one measly mile.
It seems that on average, peoples' concepts of basic physical living have deteriorated over the years. Though many pay for Gym membership, they have forgotten that to simply walk a trail somewhere for 5 miles will be free and do them more good. And many are imposing that on their pets.
