Coming
from a family of animal lovers, we had many pet dogs, among
them, an Alsatian, an Airedale Terrier, and a Borzoi called
Jasper. I used to take Jasper out with me when jogging -
or rather, Jasper used to take me out! This was one animal
I couldn't even come close to tiring - they have remarkable
speed and stamina. However, our dog was a bit scatty. He
was extremely friendly with people, but lethal with other
animals - especially dogs and sheep. Because they are so
powerful, they can be a bit of a handful when encountering other
walkers - so be warned - train hard!
