How It Works Quinn

Quinn, Doberman Pinscher, Age 5Also Known As: “Queeeen”
Breed: Doberman Pinscher
Age: 5

Bark!

I may look like the big bad wolf on the outside, but I'm a big softy on the inside and definitely a people kinda dog.

When my momma, Jill, told me about Bootcamp, I almost peed my bed, I was so excited! You see, I'm no beginner at exercise. In fact, I used to take an agility class and was quite good at it. People would sit back and watch as I gracefully ran around the course, jumping and climbing things that were in my path. Psst...don't tell anyone I said this but I think I was the best dog there!

Anyway, after I quit going, we started going to Runyon Canyon everyday, hiking with my buddy Emmitt and meeting other fun and wild dogs to run around with. If we're not at Runyon, my momma runs me 6 or more miles a day to make sure I'm getting all the exercise I need. Otherwise, I get grumpy and who wants to be around that!?!

Oh and, I almost forgot about all the obedience training I've done too. I'm very good with my commands and love to show it off! If you think you can handle a dobie, I definitely make a GREAT workout partner!


How It Works Emmitt

Emmitt, Border Terrier, Age 2Also Known As: “Mito”
Breed: Border Terrier
Age: 2

Hiya!

Don't let this cute and cuddly look I play so well fool you. I'm actually a bootcamp badass, which is definitely a Border Terrier trait I'm sure!

After my mom, Jamie, told me about bootcamp, I did laps around our backyard, jumping in the air with glee, and barking my excitement for everyone to hear.

I LOVE to exercise and the fact that I get to be with my mom AND run around like a mad man makes me very happy! I'm a silly dog with a lot of personality, people always wants a Border after they spend time with me. Who can blame them?

For exercise, my mom takes me to Runyon Canyon where we hike the hardest trail and I get to play with my best friend, Quinn...that fine looking lady up there.

I like to think of myself as a big dog on the inside because I exercise like one and usually only play with them too. Small dogs just don't do it for me. I can run circles for hours in a dog park and run miles on a jog. Basically, I've got some endurance that won't let you down!

As for training, I'm pretty much a pro. I went to Colorado with my mom and practiced my obedience there. I trained with 3 huge German Shepherds and boy was it a good time!

I'm feeling pretty confident these days, sometimes a bit too much. All it takes is a little reminder and I'm the best workout partner you'll ever have!


How It Works Riley

Riley, Minature Pinscher, Age 7Also Known As: “Rileydoo”
Breed: Minature Pinscher
Age: 7

Yo bitches! I'm fat.

You know what the best thing about that is? I'm fat and totally in charge!

I'm about to show all of you pooches out there that fat dogs can keep up and lose weight too.

When I heard about this bootcamp idea, I was like “Hellz ya! I'm ready for a lean body machine to come my way and there ain't nobody who is gonna stop me.” I've got attitude people and my moms can vouch for that.

They always tell me to watch what I eat, but I don't listen to them. I'm hungry! One time, I went out to the backyard and ate so many figs, I had to get an enema to relieve my pain. But, don't think that stopped me! No way, I'll eat whenever and whatever I can.

In fact, another time I stole a chicken sandwich out of a woman's hand at the dog park. Mmmmmmm, it was yummy! I believe I was supposed to be exercising then but I felt my nutrition was way more important.

As for exercise, I don't do it much. But when I do, I'm a superstar and I won't let you down...unless it's too hot of course. Basic obedience? Yeah, I do that well too. In fact, I will be the first dog to say I will keep you from doing extra push-ups because I've got compassion being a fat girl and all. You should really choose me and not only because I need it, we can motivate each other to get the hot bodies that we've always wanted!
