The crunch that satisfies!  We're in the country as well, but it is
rapidly becoming suburban.  The road in front of our house is attracting
more commuters all the time making even early morning weekday walks less
than pleasant.  My wife would like to walk our Pyrs (Elaine and
Alexander) around the block (4 miles), but I'm nervous about running
into other dogs.

Not bad at all - maybe even necessary.  Next time my dogs get a hold on
some - I'm just going to smile and say 'Enjoy'. <g>
