Is this wrong?

Fiori likes to run.

A lot.

We think she is going to be true to her roots and a famous long distance runner. Her favorite thing is for us to chase her round and round. She looks at us says "I'm gonna get you" (actually "na na na getcha") repeatedly until one of us gets up and chases her. And she keeps doing it. Again and again.

Lately we've realized if she has a piece of food in her hand, Casper will follow her around and she is pretty much just as happy to run from him as from us. So we've started giving her a hunk of bread or a piece of asparagus or anything we think she might hold in her hand for a while as she runs around.

Now don't get me wrong. It's totally fun to chase her around and have her squeal in delight as one of us catches her and tickles. But that girl has some energy and so does Casper so why not let them work it off together?

Sounds like a creative solution to me! They both get to burn off some energy!

smart mommy! seriously, if we had to run every time our kids wanted us too, we'd collapse from exhaustion. I wish my old dog was up for chasing Elsa - sadly the reverse is true... Elsa chases India for about a minute and then the dog high-tails it out of the house to the shelter of the back yard.
