Lost my walking partner

We were working up to 5 miles a day, now the dog doesn’t want to go more than 2. He’s starting to be how Rita was. It makes me sad. I guess walks are too boring for him now. I always say German Shepherds are too smart for me. He probably wants more mentally stimulating exercise. Well, I can’t provide that. I can get us out in the sunshine for 10-15 miles a day or run for 3. That’s it. Guess I can run him for one mile every morning and then send him back home with his weakened people (one has gout all the time and the other is sick for unknown reasons…all the time). When I move back home, that’s it; no one else will take him on these walks. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Honestly, though, it’s kind of lonely when a dog doesn’t even want to go for a walk with you.
