My little running buddy

I decided that I have been taking too many "rest days" lately so I decided to go out for a run tonight. I took Sparky with me and we ran most of a mile. We did a 16:30 minute mile and Sparky ran just as much, if not more, that I did. This is great for Sparky because if I walk or run too far I usually end up carrying him home.

I thought I would share a picture of Sparky since this post is about his awesome running skills. This picture is at least two years old. He is wearing his "Little Sparkler" shirt. It's pretty cute since his name is Sparkles. Although he answers to any of the following:
Sparkles
Sparky
Barkles
Barky
Sir Sparkleton
Sparky-Barky
Sir Fluffer Butt
Barky Barkerson
The Sparkenator
The Poopenator
Bubby
Captain Fuzzy Butt
Sparkles Rosebud Billingsley

Believe it or not...he actually knows that all of these mean him.
