Every few hours each day, just like clockwork, Ninny the goat and Kona the dog start getting restless and tell Grace Bruinsma in no uncertain terms that it害羞草研究所檚 time to go for their walk.

The pair have become inseparable and look forward to their walks on a rural Aldergrove street with their companion Grace Bruinsma.

Over recent months they害羞草研究所檝e become a bit of a sensation with passing motorists, who often stop and take photos and videos of the trio trotting along 24 Avenue.

Kona the dog is still a youngster and can be a bit of a brat and escape artist, so Grace and husband Andrew keep him on a leash when he害羞草研究所檚 not in his kennel. Ninny the goat, on the other hand, is eager to follow Kona and Grace and sticks close to them during their walks without any leash or harness to restrain her.

害羞草研究所淚t started about half a year ago when I took Kona out for his exercise, Ninny started bawling that she wanted to come along with us,害羞草研究所� said Grace.

害羞草研究所淚 thought, why not? She sticks real close to us and listens to me when I tell her to stop and make room for passing cars, and stands on the shoulder or a driveway with us. And if I don害羞草研究所檛 take her she cries non-stop in her paddock.害羞草研究所�

害羞草研究所淪o many people get a kick out of it,害羞草研究所� adds Andrew. 害羞草研究所淧eople stop, take photos, and ask Grace if she needs help.害羞草研究所�

The couple are hoping that Kona will grow out of his predilection for running away to the neighbours so that he doesn害羞草研究所檛 have to spend the rest of his life in his kennel. But in the meantime he needs his daily exercise, walking and running alongside Grace and Ninny.

害羞草研究所淚 usually take them out four times a day for a run and they enjoy it so much that I enjoy it too,害羞草研究所� said Grace.

害羞草研究所淭hey know exactly when it害羞草研究所檚 time for their run and they tell me, loud and clear.害羞草研究所�
