This is Magnus, he is a 7 month old Black Lab. Some of his hobbies include eating everything in the house and waking me up every night at 2 am to let him outside. On the plus side he is a lady magnet.

lol
good to see people keeping their dogs in shape as well.
Are those weights on their backs??
Did you make those or buy them at a store?
I’ve always wanted to run with my dog while he had weights on his back. He would get too excited and take off like a bat out of hell when we would run. I figured that my slow him down a bit, but never could find any weight vests for dogs in the pet store.
I miss that goofy mutt.
All those dogs are really nice looking.
That mutt that you say you adopted has a very interesting coat. His colors almost look like a Rott, but everything else looks well as you said collie/shepard. Really nice though.
Chloe is the German Shepherd and Trinity is the lab.

Those are actually their packs. We were backpacking/climbing last week so they pack in their own food & dishes, that way when they swim with their packs it is only their food that is affected!
You can usually get them at any climbing or outdoor shop. I never thought about just putting weights in them, I could start them all on a resistance training program, lol! As for keeping them in shape, they also keep me in shape- I have never done cardio at the gym; we hike every day & they do my HIIT hill sprints too!

My husky loves her pack, and it definitely helps when they carry their own gear!
I got hers at REI.com
