My 3.5 yo dcg has tonnes of energy. I've watched her go, go, go. She'll play in my back yard or the playground until the cows come home. But every time we're walking, be it to or from the park, or around the block, she's whining about it. "My feet hurt... I'm tired.... I want to go back to your house... I don't want to walk..." When she starts whining I just tell her that walking is good for us, or that we're almost there, or something along those lines. I'm not going to lie, I have minimal patience for whining.
Anyway, is this just an 'I don't want to' issue on her part? I'm thinking that if she has the energy to play and run around the yard like she does, she should be able to handle a walk around the block!
