For the second day in a row while sitting by a small lake in rural Germany, I have see a couple pushing a child push chair with two little dogs in it !

I saw both the dogs walking in the evening so that aren’t having any difficulties.

The world has gone mad!

Too hot to walk a dog at the moment, perhaps they were keeping their feet off the floor to avoid burning.

I would simply not take them

There are other dogs about acting like dogs. It looked like the norm for these two!

The way my dodgy legs feel today I think you may be correct!
