Everything you need to know about running with a dog on a lead (Runner's World (UK))

Why you shouldn't run with a normal lead · Get your dog a harness · Get yourself a belt · Invest in a bungee lead · Running parkrun with a dog.

There is also less control when you run with a dog on a lead attached to its collar. Dogs must now be on a handheld non-extendable lead running to the side of their owner rather than out in front. The second issue is that running with a lead in your hand can cause you imbalances and lead to poor running form. Once you have a harness fitted for your dog, the next stage is to get your own harness or canicross belt. This is a springy lead which helps to absorb any shock from your dog, preventing jarring or sudden dramatic movements. Instead of sitting around the waist, a human canicross harness sits on the pelvis and is usually fixed in place with leg straps. There are three main problems with running with a dog on a lead attached to the collar. Instead, they will be attached to a solid core via a special lead. The benefit of a human harness is that it puts less strain on your lower back, particularly if you have strong-pulling dog. It can be time-consuming to fit in a run and a dog walk so combining them together is a pawsome, efficient way to exercise. They are comfortable to wear and don't restrict shoulder movement, meaning your dog will be less prone to injury. This means that they will pull on the lead, which may choke them if it is attached to a collar.

For vacationers with a senior dog, Nantucket offers a chance to romp (The Washington Post)

It was our first full day on Nantucket Island, Mass., and in our first hour at Jetties Beach, dog-friendly like all of the beaches on this island, Odie had made ...

to 7 p.m., and Sunday, noon to 6 p.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Sunday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Open daily in season for breakfast, 8 to 10:30 a.m.; lunch, noon to 2 p.m.; and dinner, 6 to 9 p.m. to 2 p.m.; and for brunch Sunday, 10 a.m. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 8 a.m. Open nightly for dinner, 5 to 10 p.m.; for lunch Thursday to Saturday, 11:30 a.m. Peter Burke, executive director of the Nantucket Island Chamber of Commerce, wrote in an email that the majority of the island’s visitors arrive by boat, which he thinks may be a contributing factor to the high number of dogs on the island. Watching Odie go from 100 to zero, as a senior dog with creaky joints and tired eyes, is a constant reminder of how little time we have left with him. He regularly pulled me in the direction of the hotel on subsequent walks, and I rewarded him with two, sometimes three, biscuits. Steve and I are not Nantucket regulars, yet we did enjoy a blissful few days on the island for our mini-moon in May 2016.
