Among the hardships for shelter-bound pups is the lack of space and freedom to run. One high school in Santa Barbara found a fix for this problem…

According to a story in The Dodo, the cross country team at St. Joseph High School decided to invite the dogs on their morning runs!

“I am not sure who was more excited and having the most fun … the dogs or the kids,” coach Luis Escobar wrote. “Either way, it was a great time and I am sure we will do it again sometime soon.”

We can only hope this becomes a trend!
