πΆπͺ April is National Canine Fitness Month!
Just like us, our dogs need regular exercise to stay healthy, happy, and strong. This month is the perfect time to spring into fitness with your pup and build an active routine together!
Here are a few fun ways to get started:
πΎ Agility Exercises β Use small hurdles or bars and encourage your dog to crawl or move under them with a treat. Great for agility and cardio!
π― Target Training Games β Place targets on the ground and have your dog move from one to another. This improves focus, coordination, and body awareness.
βοΈ Balance & Core Work β Practice βsit to standβ with your dogβs front paws on a balance surface to help strengthen core muscles and stability.
Before starting any new fitness routine, be sure to check with your veterinarian to make sure your dog is healthy enough for conditioning exercises.
Letβs celebrate an active canine lifestyle all month long! πβ¨
