Dog Exercise








You and your dog can get out and walk five days a week or everyday of the week. Not only is the exercise good for your dog but it is good for you, too. Keep your blood pressure down, cholesterol down, and heart healthy. Walking has so many benefits!

You and your dog can walk and explore the city. Treat your dog with a treat from one of the pet shops downtown. Switch it up and walk your dog at the park near your home. If you live in the country you can take your dog for a walk in the field or on a hiking trail. If you take a walk on a hiking trail, make sure you bring enough water for both you and your dog. Bring your cell phone just in case you get lost deep in the woods.

By walking your dog you will keep him trim and feeling much better. As your dog ages you do not want him gaining a lot of weight especially if he is destined for arthritis, poor hips or back problems with pain.

Your dog will be grateful that you take him for daily walks. If you lounged around the house all day while your owner was at work--a walk outside is pure bliss. To dogs walking outside is like TV to us only better. Your dog is enjoying all of the smells, sights, sounds, tastes and the feel of the grass under his paws.

While walking your dog make sure you have a sturdy leash for your dog. Keep him safe while you are out walking together.

  1. Since owning a dog I have lost 25 pounds just from walking him every day for 30 minutes. We bond and help our health together.

  2. I love walking with my dog every morning before work and after dinner. We both enjoy taking different walks from around our block, to the forest, to the lake, etc. Never dull!
