Near here we've got a practically deserted horse park, we go there and walk a few miles, let the dog(s) swim, run up and down the steep hills, etc. It's good exercise for 'em.
my dogs love a good a spring pole lets them get a great workout
swimming my dog loves to swim

Im on 15 acres surrounded by woods, so me and the dogs do ALOT of walking, and swimming in the pond once in a while, but I think they enjoy the spring pole the best!!:D
I think my favorite things to do with the dogs is take them to the beach and walk them. Bath time isn't that great but they sure do look nice when they are squeaky clean.
i have two dogs. a chow chow and a pitbull. i also have 4 used to be stray cats, 2 african lovebirds, and 1 flowerhorn fish. i love pets.
to answer th poll, my favorite activities with my pets is basically just playing with them. and they love to play with each other!!! except of course, my fish. my cats play with the birds, my dogs play with my cats. you may not have believed it, but yes, the love each other. they seem to undrstand that theyre not just my pets, but, i look at them as part of my family. the care i give them, the love, etc. and they seem to appreciate everthing. whenever a dog from the outside would attack one of them, everybody would attack back, as if, they feel that theyre family and should protect each other.

My dogs and I love when i take them for a run on my bike the only problem we have is sometimes they get so ecxited they cant make up their mind which side they want to run on and get tangled up and make me fall off my bike. We like throwing the tennisball too but most of the time they wont bring it back and i have to chase them.And i like it when they try catching me.:D

We have a lake across the road from our house and our oldest bitch has figured out that if she sticks her head in her water bucket long enough she can slip out of her collar. Everytime she does we only have to go to the lake and she's in it lol!!!

I put a rope through my dog's kong and tied a knot on each end. There is about 3 feet of slack at one end. My dog goes nuts with this. He can tug like crazy, chase it, and hang on the end of it.
It gives him alot of exercise and wears him out, especially right before we go to sleep. Good for him, great for me and the wife.:) :) :) .

walking, swimming, throwing the tennis ballBe careful your dog doesn't end up eating the tennis ball, I'd look for a hard solid type ball if I were you, just a suggestion...

Most of my dogs love to swim.Especially in my goldfish pond in my front yard.Most of my dogs do weight pulling in competition so we work out and walk often.

Love to work with them using a flirt pole, but swimming is a close 2nd. Nothing like taking one of the dogs to the lake for some water fetch..

I love taking my dog for long walks, playin frisbee..although once he gets it..i end up playing tug of war for it...he just loves tug of war...and he loves shakin it out on the springpole. if the weather is bad i just throw a ball for him down the hallway of my house...great fun.
I Have About 8 Dogs And Dont Have That Much Time To Spend With Them Because Iam In School And Work... So The Best Bet For Me Is Letting Them Run On The Slatmills For A Hour Or So...
I Do Lots With Gremlin But My Fav. Is Swiming.

well, what my dog LOVEs TO DO is play RACE THE BRONCO"aka" "a shit ford", my dog is trained to stay at his mark as i drive to a safe point and them you tell him to git! oh man that dog can run! i understand this is very unsafe but sometimes its nice to see a glow in your dogs eyes. also he swim,climb trees, and what ever seems fun at the time.
please do not do as i do! your dog can die!

Krystal's favorite thing is her rope (I drag her all over the house) second would be fetching her squeaky toy. But boy she loves to ride in the car. Joel.
