    My chow tries to jump on me - it doesn't matter what kind of exercise, the stationary bike, treadmill, Jillian Michaels DVD, even just dancing to music cd's etc. I have to block the door to keep her out or she will pester me to death. It is almost too comical to see her doing it though.

    I have a border collie mix that will just lay and watch me on the tread mill like I am crazy because I am not really going any where and then I also have a 140 lb Rotti that has to sit on me when I do any kind of floor exercise.

    They drive me nuts but they are my babies.

    My kitties are nearly always underfoot if I'm working out to one of my DVDs. Mr. Tadakichi is a scaredy-cat and gets out of the way pretty quicky, but Jayne thinks it's a good time to try and get my attention because he is in need of a cuddlefest RIGHT NOW. :laugh:

    Your male cat's name is Jayne? OMG! Hello fellow Browncoat! :flowerforyou:

    Oh my two multi cultural dogs aka mutts love when I work out. They get all excited and bite my feet, jump up and down in front of me, and then they start wrestling with each other. I think I get a better workout with them around b/c I'm having to put out extra effort to avoid them! Then if I even think about abs or stretching its game over for me! I end up laughing so hard b/c they end up on top of me licking my face.

    When I'm doing pilates in my room and am doing something like the plank my big fluffy cat likes to come rub up against me (which is oh so fun when I'm gross and sweaty) and lie on my mat right when I'm going to drop down.

    I have the same problem as a lot here with the cat, no dog thankfully. Cats don't like to let you workout I've noticed. Don't try to do pushups or down dog or plank or anything like that with cats, they'll flop underneath you.

    My animals like to bother me when I first get started, but then they settle down. The cute thing is my 47-pound border collie will actually mimick me when I'm doing yoga - I do downward facing dog, he does downward facing dog - it's adorable!

    I've got four large dogs and if the weather is good, I have to lock them outside while I workout. Tucker is attached to my hip, or would at least love it if he were so I can't do anything without him under foot, literally. When the weather is bad, I have to build a barrier with the dining room chairs so they can't get into the living room. They all stand around the chairs as if the only thing that matters in the world is saving me from the workout. I love them but it's impossible to work out when they are in the living room with me.
