Last July my wife decided she would like a dog, so we got a Borador puppy (Border Collie/Labrador Cross), what has that to do with weight and fitness you may ask?

Although I was reasonably reasonably fit and not overweight, with the additional three dog walks/day usually totalling at least 5-6miles plus things like playing with the dog with a ball I now weigh 8lbs less and feel fitter than I have done for several years and all with no reduction in food or drink (just as well since I love a pint or 3 of Real Ale but I do always walk to and from the pub!)
