Dog toys, apparel, equipment, and activities for the active dog.
A Mind and Body Approach to Dog Exercise and Activities
Insufficient exercise and mental stimulation can lead to stress, often creating behavior and health problems including but not limited to aggressive and/or destructive behavior, fatigue, and skin problems such as itching or excessive shedding.
Exercise is also good for the canine mind
Running through the woods or along a beach, swimming in a lake, navigating an agility course, chasing a ball or Frisbee, playing with other dogs in a dog park, or playing with interactive dog toys all challenge your dogs mind, help to calm him down, and provide exercise as well. Many of these activities can also provide fun and exercise for you.
Avoid these common behavior problems in your dog
· Excessive barking
· Soiling in the house
· Destructive chewing
· Hyperactivity
These dog behavior problems often stem from boredom, separation anxiety, and too much pent-up energy. Increasing your dogs activities and exercise time will help your dog become well adjusted, better behaved, and much more happy and healthy. In addition, the cardiovascular system will improve, more calories will be burned, helping to keep your dog trim and fit, and his muscles will be better toned. An added benefit is that you and your dog will have a stronger bond by sharing more quality time together.
